Do I need any other materials?

You will need an oven, scissors, and potentially other drawing materials if you want to expand the color palette.

How long does it take for the keychains to shrink?

The shrinking process usually takes a few minutes, but always refer to the instructions for the recommended time and temperature.

Can I use other types of pencils or markers?

Is adult supervision required?

How do I attach the key ring?

Make sure you create a hole in your design before baking, then once cool you can attach the keyring through that hole.

Troubleshooting

Keychain is not shrinking.

Ensure the oven is at the correct temperature and the shrink film is placed on a flat surface. Check the instructions for the recommended time and temperature.

Keychain is curling up too much.

Reduce the oven temperature slightly or reduce the baking time. Ensure the film is not exposed to the direct heat source.

Colors are fading after shrinking.

Use the included colored pencils, or use permanent markers designed for use on plastic. Ensure the colors are applied evenly.
