what is shrinky dinks?
shrinky dinks is the name of an arts and crafts product for children invented in 1973. it's a durable non-toxic plastic, it is very suitable for jewelry making. i cut each "block" by hand, and bake it in my oven. due to the nature of shrink plastic each piece is unique with slight variations in shape.

what if i need a different size necklace or bracelet?
all necklaces are approximately 17" long with pendant measuring about 1"x1". all bracelets are about 7" long (fits medium to large wrist.) usually i make things to order, so please give me a shout if you need a different size.
