Shrink not the best

Shrink not the best. A writer friend hired a therapist to print her book covers to make charms for an event. I decided to use the same idea to turn my dad's favorite books into decorations for his Christmas tree. I have used two packs, one my husband bought from a store a few years ago and the other. They didn't end the day well. I think they need to be painted or glued somehow. I have successfully used laser inkjet or interference. This herd has shrunk strangely and unevenly. The surfaces of the products in the store were better, shinier and more professional, and the shrinkage was more even. A few notes: you should adjust the color so that it looks more washed out in print. The color will concentrate as it bakes. The smaller rectangles I made shrunk more evenly and consistently. I slightly lowered the temperature in the toaster to the recommended temperature, which also resulted in more even shrinking.

Pros
  • Dye, Bake, and Shrink
Cons
  • Requires Socket
