Look what I got from FIDGET! I adore everything she does! She is magic I tell ya!

Teeny little charms. I think I'm going to make them into stitch markers.


Look at the little jelly fish!


Teapot emery board.


Tyvek pouch! I've always wanted one!


The most wonderful little tin to keep my needles! I cried when I saw it. This is just so beautiful!

Great job on the tin!  It's lovely!  The charms a cute too.

[sweets4ever]

Such cute stuff!!

Do the charms have holes in them already?  They are so cute... especially that jelly fish

AH!  A tyvek pouch!  I just made one for the first time...what fun!

[teapotdnky]

They don't have holes yet, but I have a tiny drill.

Ahhh...that's good!  Don't break 'em, 'cause I'll cry

[Fidget]

Teapot,  , you are so welcome!  I'm glad you liked everything. 

Sorry about forgetting to put holes in the shrinkies.  If they break I'll make more for you.  Perhaps it would be better to glue jump rings onto them instead of drilling holes? 

Don't cry, Sweets4ever!  Did you want a jelly fish, too?

I tried shrinkies once & they curled   I have lots of the paper though, so you have inspired me to try again!  I've researched more on them now... I have faith once again!

I DO want a jelly fish, though!  Can I have one?  Can I make you something?  *bounce*  PM me if you are serious...teehee!  I find happiness in small things in life...no pun intended

If your shrinkies curled they just weren't done yet.  If you leave them in a bit longer they will flatten themselves.  Most folks panic when they see them curling and want to yank them out of the oven and try to push them flat.  Physics will take over if you just leave them in the oven a bit longer.

Ahh... you're my hero    Someone suggested using foil under them, rather than paper.  What do you use?
