INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 250. Wash the inside
of your chip bag with soapy water, just like you would if
you were washing dishes, being careful not to rip the bag.
Dry the inside and out of the bag with paper towel thoroughly.
Have a sheet of foil the same size as your baking sheet. Crinkle
the foil and loosely smooth out the foil dull side up to fit
the baking sheet.
Using oil, grease the foil moderately. Place chip bag face
up in the center on the foil. With parent help place in the
oven for 5 to 7 minutes. With parent help remove and cool
completely. When cool the shrunken chip bag will pop off.
Wash shrunken chip bag well in soapy water to remove oil residue.
It helps to pour a little dish soap directly onto the back
of the chip bag. With scissors, trim any rough edges. Then
hole punch the left hand corner and attach a key ring.
This project makes a great gift to friends, parents, grandparents
and teachers. Teachers, use this craft as a class project
for father’s day.
WARNING: This
project is temperamental and not all chip bags work. If the
bag does not shrink after the given time, add a couple minutes
and keep an eye on it.
