The Seattle Square Market starts tomorrow night! A craft-flea-vintage-food-extravaganza that will be happening throughout the summer on every non-first Thursday. I’ll be there tomorrow, from 4-9pm, at my booth with octopus-girl necklaces and greeting cards. Also make sure to see Ania’s beautiful work, as she will be there as well.
As I’ve been doing so much shrinky-dinking, I thought I’d post some process pictures:
First, pencil sketch: notice it’s on a full sheet of 8.5×11″ paper – the largest I can go with the shrinkable sheets that I have!
Next, it is traced directly onto the plastic sheet with sharpie:
Here’s the finished cut out piece, ready for the oven:
…And mid-bake, warping like crazy:
And the finished product!






yay! i had no idea you’d be there this time as well! ps. love the red hair
Hmmm – just beautiful! I still need to investigate this shrinky dink stuff ^-^
Also now on my list is an xacto knife
Thanks for sharing your stuff, very inspiring! And loving the hair.
Neato! Thanks for sharing the process! That warping part is crazy.
I love these multi-arm ones, and the girls from the sea in the last post.
