Resolution #268: Create A Personalized Set Of Shrinky Dinks...

Date: 9-25-2014

Due Date: 9-25-2015

The Resolution: A few years ago, while home for the holidays, I found this unused sheet of E.T. Shrinky Dinks amongst my old belongings that are stored in my mom's garage. I'm not fully sure why Shrinky Dinks were so fascinating but they were.

I assumed that the Shrinky Dink company disappeared with time, due to the hazardous combination of a children's toy and fire.

Today's resolution was going to be to figure out how to make a Shrinky Dink from scratch, making my own paper and everything. I searched on the internet to see if there were any suggested techniques when I found, right at the top of the search, that the Shrinky Dink company is still around.

I also found that they sell blank sheets for you to create your own personalized Shrinky Dinks. So, that's what I'm going to do.

Result #268: Unfortunately… I Failed To Design My Line Of Predator Penguin Shrinky Dinks… But… This Dream Is Not Over…

Update #1: The Conclusion…

I hate to sound like a broken record so I'm going to avoid the backstory. Even though this resolution to create my own Shrinky Dinks should be very affordable, I still didn't have the finances to pull it off in time.

You can scroll back through many of my other financial failures if you are interested in reading more details about why I am so broke. Yesterday’s failure could be a good place to start.

I now have a bit of a steady income and hope to get caught up on these affordable failures as soon as I can. As always I'll keep you posted when I do.
