DIY Kimoji Lapel Pins

I'm so excited to share this DIY with you guys! We are gonna make a kimoji-inspired pin! It is so easy and it will totally impress everyone who sees them.

All you need is:
Crying Kimoji or any photo you want to turn into a pin
Sharpies
Acrylic paint
White Shrinky Dinks Paper
Pin backs
Hot glue or super glue
Scissors
An oven
Glossy Mod Podge

1. Pick out what emoji you want to make and find a large photo of it online.

2. Trace the photo onto the Shrinky Dinks paper using a black sharpie. The photo needs to be large because it will shrink considerably in the oven. Don't worry about getting it perfect. You can fix the details later.

3. Color the picture in using sharpies or acrylic paint. While permanent markers can be easier their colors tend to bleed together and get distorted after baking. You get better color pay off with paint but you will end up with a rougher surface.

4. Color in the details and outline it in black.

5. Cut out your emoji.

6. Place in a 325 degree heat oven for 1-3 minutes. Don't worry when you see the emojis bend, when they shrink down all the way they will become flat again.
