Step 2
The first step is to cut out all of your shapes. Obviously, shrink plastic shrinks, so you want to make sure your shapes won't be too big or too small.
I sometimes use a special cutter to make my circles, but you can always trace something and cut it out too.
For this bracelet, I'm cutting out squares...

Step 3
If you want your bracelet to have shapes on every loop of chain, then you'll have to cut out a lot of shapes. If you want to skip some loops then that works too.
You can always go back and make more shapes if you need to :)
I like to use different colors on each bracelet. But it's all up to you. Be creative!!

Step 5
It's time to shrink the shapes!!
The oven should be at 350 degrees. Put all of your shapes on a cookie sheet, and make sure that none of them are touching. You might have to do a couple batches...
Put them in the oven. It only takes a couple minutes for them to shrink, and it's kinda fun to watch!
