Melted Plastic Sculpture

THIS post and THIS post helped me come up with this Dale Chihuly inspired project.

Supplies:

plastics (#6 is the best, shrinky dink plastic) (#1 melts well) (#5 curls)

permanent markers

scissors

oven (200 degrees)

foil

cookie sheet

oven mitts

hot glue

Instructions:

1. Draw on plastics with markers and cut into pieces

2. Put on foil lined cookie sheet and put in 200 degree oven

3. Watch closely. #6 plastics only need 1 to 2 minutes

4. Hot glue together

Tips:

*They cool quickly

* Make sure the plastics are clean

* The plastics should not smell but leave windows open
