Default failed shrinky dink

If your shrinky dink is touching itself, it's a total loss. I
usually use a piece of cardboard. I've not gotten them to work
on a cookie sheet. One thing that also helps is lightly dusting
the cardboard with flour.

Arthur,
I agree, in principle to the your recommendations regarding shrinky
dinkage. However I must add my 2 cents. I have found that the cookie
sheet doesn't lend itself well to extended shrinky dink sessions. The
most efficient way to shrink a a large number of dinks (1000 over a
period of several hours) is to use a well seasoned pizza stone.

I have shrunk many tens of thousands of Shrinky Dinks on a round stone
like the one offered by Pampered Chef here =

Any similar such stone should work great for shrinky dinks in a
conventional oven. The Pampered Chef products are bit expensive. I
imagine that you could find a cheaper stone suitible for shrinky dink
creation, I just happen to have the Pampered CHef one because I
received it as a gift.
