I did shrink art with my children loooong ago. It’s not for kids anymore! The boxes in this book are wonderful and the mini chest for tiny treasures is a must make. The new shrink plastic is one of the up and coming artist mediums.

One of the reasons that these books have become part of my “favorites” list is the complete supply lists that are given. They are one of the few publishers who give all the color numbers and brand names of exactly what you need to complete the chosen project. That makes it a whole lot easier on beginners who are trying something for the first time.
