    Necklaces/earrings are just the beginning. There are so many possibilities. Thanks for sharing.
    Thanks
    So far I've made keyrings/phone charms/earrings/necklace charms... but I'll research and come up with something unique. I don't think I'll ask too much. I mean- they're hand made, so they won't be perfect.
    But the process of making them is long and painful (and sometimes they shrink horribly in the oven). It might be easier to buy bulk from overseas XDD

    I've ordered some similar stuff before off the internet, where you can get custom printed jewelry/tags but I've found that they don't last too long (fading, tarnish etc over a few years). I'd be interested to know the longevity of the stuff you made

    They look very nice. I would personally prefer them if there was less of a white border. very cool artwork, and a very interesting manufacturing method.

    I'd be keen for an Autobot faction logo for sure!

    Good point. I was assuming the bulk stuff would be pretty good. But if I've given my ones enough sealed layers, they should last quite a while... hmm- which I had a time machine to test my theory! XDD

    I'll give that a try. The issue is cutting this paper is REALLY difficult (if if your corners are too sharp, they can crack in the oven). But I will still give it a shot!

    the cracking would be related to material stress in the shrinking process.
    If you had a punch style super sharp cutting tool you could radius the internal corners and then cut up to that radius. the radius would relieve a lot of the material stresses, reducing cracking.
