Read this for the best tips on using this stuff
There are alot of tips you need to know about this stuff.First, when printing make sure the image you are printing is nice and bright and clear, as when it shrinks in oven or under your heat gun the colour will intensify or darken.Second, once printed make sure ink is dry before cutting. If you're using this for jewellery making and need a hole for pendants or whatever add the hole now and make it using probably a paper hole punch.Once ready put in a preheated oven at 150cOn a flat baking tray lined with baking paper. Make sure the baking paper cant fly about as in my fan oven it was a nightmare I weight the corners down with some baking beads.These shrink super quick I mean literal 2 mins. You'll see curling dont panic let it do its stuff, and once it has fully shrunk take it out of oven, of you've notice they are completely flatten use a spatula quick to flatten them before they set.You can also use a heat gun if doing this make sure you're wearing heat proof mitts and use some thing like tweezers to try and keep they plastic from blowing away while you try to shrink it. I prefer this method personally once you get use to it its quicker and handier. You can use a spatula again to completely flatten a piece if it hasn't done so itself.Also, sizing, let's talk about these because no guides online seem to go into detail.Forget about percentages I'm going to give you exact measurements and you can decide based on my experiences what you want to try. I had made two attempts.My first attempt I printed out images 6cm lengthwise. They shrunk to 2.5cm. my second attempt I did 4cm roughly and they shrunk to about 1.5cm.Because I was doing this to make stud earrings I'm probably going to try again with 3cm. I think this will give me a 1cm or just under.I hope this helps as I did waste three sheets before I was completely happy with what I was making.

Overpriced but works well
I think the item is overpriced, however it works very well and makes great badges and pins. Just remember if you are printing out a design to make the colours lighter at it will come out perfect. Would buy again

Awful, worse than non branded!!
I use a lot of shrink plastic and sadly this is awful. The shrink rate is so much worse than other ones I've purchased, very uneven shrinking so your image looks oblong and truly doesn't resemble your design anymore. The colours come out dull after shrinking, and the edges have a weird bumpiness to them that other sheets I've purchased don't have. Would definitely not recommend. Just shows you branded is not always better!!

Buy specific printer for these shrinkies can be costly
Use these for gifts and projects at work just be aware when using a regular printer it's quite slow and can make photos darker unless you have a special printer you can adjust the brightness

Nice product when it actually works
Warning; the packaging says it shrinks 20% but it shrinks 50% at least!The first sheet I had printed, I sized all the charms to work with the 20% shrink, so they ended up too small for me to actually use, an entire sheet wasted!The next sheet I resized the art I wanted to accommodate the 50% shrink, but I guess it was a faulty sheet because not a single one shrank in the oven.The four sheets I had left actually worked, and the product is quite nice, but for the price of it, I really don't think it was worth it. I don't think I'll be ever trying this again.Please consider changing the details on your packaging so it reflects the true shrink percentage
