Merch no 2. Shrinkies pin badges!!

Below you'll see the post for lino printed t-shirts - and once you've done those, this easily follows. 

What are they? Shrinkies are a crafty favourite of little'uns, I definitely remember playing with them when  I was little - usually with flower fairies on them -  and are essentially very thin sheets of plastic, which can be drawn or printed on and then shrunk in the oven to make cute little hardened shapes. 

Where enamel pin badges can be costly and have high minimum orders required, these can be made one by one, the materials are cheap (£11 for a pack of 50 - I fitted 2 badges on each piece - and £5 for 100 pin backs from Amazon) and they make for lovely results. 

I chose to lino print onto them, the same way I did the t-shirts, but the recommended method is through drawing and colouring in with pencils. Either way, lovely little badges, low cost and great for generating a few pennies for charity!
