I did a bunch of charms for a St. Patty's day party I had once. I even put everyones name on it!!!! Love this project too, I did not know you could print on it too....

I also wanted to add that you can use a heat (for embossing powders) gun on the shrink plastic, the ONLY thing you have to do is have something long to hold on to it while it is shrinking and then put a glass or something on top of it while it is still warm to flatten it....It works really well and is pretty fast too!!!!! You can re-heat it a bit too if you need to.

I've used shrink plastic for a number of things but forgot that you could print out onto it as well - thanks for the idea and tips!

I am totally doing this for my mom for mother's day. But I have a question...
what size did you do the keychain pages and how much did they shrink?

I printed the keyring LOs exactly the size that Dani made them (largest is around 6 inches before shrinking). The largest piece shrunk to approx. 2 1/2 inches which is perfect for me cause I am ALWAYS losing my keys LOL!!!!
