Subject: Stained glass toy thing....

Written By: Old Enough on 11/05/03 at 11:03 a.m.

Does anyone know the name of the toy in the 80's where you poured little colored beads in to patterns, then melted them in the oven to make stained glass like things?  It's driving me crazy!!

They were called Shrinky Dinks.  They are back.  I saw a commercial for them on TV the other day. 8)

No... shrinky dinks were plastic and you heated them and they shrunk

these things were like outline frames and you filled them with colored plastic beads that melted to fill in the frames and make a stained glass type thing

I think they are called "Make It and Bake It".

I just seen them last night at a Wal-Mart, my sister and I used to make these when we were young.  I loved them.
