How to make cool earrings (using shrinking paper)

What you will need:

• shrinking paper ( they come in all sorts of colours)
• fine sand paper
• pens (the ones that don't come off)
• pencils
• a design
• earrings- you can buy different types in hobby shops)
• hole punch
• scissors

step 1 the design

the designs traced over

1. First print out or draw the design you would like on your earrings 
2. If you want to draw on it with pencil, sand paper that bit down. If you want to draw the design on the see threw type of  paper, by sanding it down it won't be see threw anymore.(I didn't sand mine down so i could only use pens)
3. the design should be double the size that you want it to be.
4. leave space when drawing the design on for the hole at the top.
5. If using the see-threw shrinking paper simply place it over the pattern and copy it.
6. Punch the hole and cut out your design leave a small rim to it.
7. place them into the oven on a sheet of baking paper on a tray.
8. don't pre-heat the oven put them in and then turn the oven on to about 125 degrees celsius.
9. (make a test one) stay by them and watch them , they should shrink in around 5 minutes , if you think that they've reached the size you prefer take them out
10. there will be the problem of curling so quickly when you take them out flatten them.
11. then leave them to cool, then simply place them on the earrings
