I'm trying to do shrink art and my friend said that you can use construction paper for bakingCan you put construction paper on a cookie sheet, put the shrink art on it, and bake it in the oven? Will the paper burn up?
parchment paper will work well at most of your oven tempsIt is used for cooking oftenIt is a good non stick surfaceConstruction paper is more cardboardy and I would also be concerned about the colorantsOtherwise, you can give it try as long, as you aren't going over about 375-400 rangeIt will start to turn brown, if you leave it in there long enough (15-20 mins) I usually stick with parchment paper or aluminum foil for this kind of thingBe sure to have the house well ventilated - the last time I did shrink art, it smelled pretty strongly.
