Quoting you 'cause I wanted you to see you'd gotten me into doing shrinky dink charms now XD
After seeing this bracelet on Twitter yesterday and being greatly amused, I had to make my own version!
I had two of these charms and the other came out nicer, but I dropped it and the damned thing vanished into friggin' Narnia or some shit. So we get the backup charm. Oh well.
LOL! a classic! Great job Key

oh, fun! i really love your little kandi rendition of your opossum oc, also, key!
i haven’t quite been making kandi stuff, but i have suddenly gotten really into shrinky dinks and thread bracelets for some reason. a couple of little in progress bits:
spoiler!
i figured that keith haring’s stuff would work well for these sorts of experiments.
i forgot about shrinky dinks so hard i couldnt tell how u made these for a second! childhood memory unlocked, I want to make some now too lol

oh, nice! that’s such a fun concept for a bracelet and a pretty color palette. it’s too bad the void swallowed up your other shrinky dink, but this one’s still fine!
Thank you! The original was just black beads with the letters and I decided mine needed more "pop," you know? And yeah, I still can't find the stupid thing, I'm fully baffled.

I swear, this whole thread got me obsessing over shrinky dinks, and now I hope to make my own charms and keychains in the future! x]
I even kept on watching videos on how to make ‘em, and learned that you can apply the color on the back and make the linework on the front of the plastic, to get a more 3D effect. I feel I could get real creative with all of this

They're fun! Even with my limited art skills I've been enjoying making stuff with them. I had never thought about doing color on either side though, that's interesting! :O

I love all of the ones you made, especially the Anti-Sloppa one! I too am sick of seeing AI-shart everywhere online
I haven't incorporated any sculpey stuff into my bracelets but that's a cool idea!
And yeah, I really love that one. XD

I love all of your creations, Key! I dabble a bit in kandi, too! I mostly make bracelets themed around characters I like, but I also have taken to making custom necklaces for my plushies!
