I remember when I was in middle or high school and in my Seventeen or YM magazine (remember YM?) there was an article about how to shrink a potato chip bag…to use for jewelry or something…today I finished off a bag of my favorite chips and thought HEY! I’m gonna try and shrink this…so I did!
*
I looked up directions on-line and they showed if you use a snack size chip bag when it is shrunk you can punch a hole in the corner and make it a keychain…I’m going to try that next…but for now all I have is a larger bag
*
#1. Wash the inside of the bag and let dry
or dry it yourself with a dishtowel…
#2. Pre-Heat the oven to around 350…
#3. Put some crinkled up foil on a cookie sheet…
#4. Spray some cooking spray on the foil…
#5. Put the bag on the foil and stick it in the oven…
#6. Watch the bag…
give it between 3-7 min to shrink up…
I would check it every couple of min
to get the timing right…
once it is hot enough it
shrinks fast and is fun to watch…
#7. Viola…you have made a shrinky-dinky baggy…
#8. Let your dog check it out…
I forgot to wash the bag before I shrank it
so she found it very interesting…
Since shrinking the normal sized bag was a success I am going to next try turning a snack sized bag into a keychain…Lucky for you cause I’m gonna
give one away a keychain that is…
(that is how sure I am I will be successful, and it will be fabulous)
