Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've purchased several of these kits from JoAnn's and my kids and their friends have had a blast with them. It's a very basic kit containing several sheets (unfortunatly I can't remember how many and the package doesn't say) of plain plastic sheets measuring 5"X8". The price is pretty decent for the amount of fun we've had with them. One side is rough (the side you draw or stamp) your image on, the other side is smooth and is quite glossy after they are shrunk. There are clear instructions with several ideas included in the kit. A few tips I'd like to mention: be very aware when cutting out your image, long thin areas will break off easily so don't cut away too much of the plastic around these areas, but overall these aren't very durable for use for say, a backpack zipper pull. Also be careful when drawing on them w/ markers because the ink will smudge easily and takes a several seconds to dry. Also if you want an area to be white, you'll need to color it white because the plastic is somewhat clear after shinking (ie. the whites of eyes). One final tip, watch them carefully when shrinking them, sometimes when they are curling up they'll stick to themselves and you have to 'unstick' them while still hot, but they can be corrected if done while they are still very hot (be careful not to burn yourself!)
