So I've just baked a batch of Shrinky Dinks and the holes I made prior to baking have shrunk. Is there a way to make a hole after they've been baked? Can I drill new holes or something?

If you have a rotary drill or a small hand drill, you shouldn't have a problem, but things like needles won't work because the plastic thickens and grows denser in the heat of the oven. Just remember that when you make shrinkies, they reduce about 50%; plan for that shrinkage, including any holes or cut out areas you make in them.

you can try drilling them with a dremel drill, if you use a paper punch the holes usually come out just right for putting a jump ring through. good luck

Just put a wire thru the tiny holes & you'll be fine

If none of the other ideas are doing it for you, you can heat the end of a large darning needle and poke it through
