Good morning all. I have been trying to find shrink wrap so that I can cover my cake dummies. I've had no luck finding this. Can anyone maybe point me in the right direction? Thanks so much

Hobby Lobby and Wal-Mart both carry shrink wrap. It's in the gift wrap section at Hobby Lobby, and it's with the baskets and floral stuff at Wal-Mart. It's the same brand, so of course, Wal-Mart is a little cheaper.

I saw some at Michael's when I was looking for gift wrap...they have it in rolls and in small bags that you wrap your item with and then use the hair dryer to shrink. Best of luck.

I've also heard that the Glad Press N' Seal wrap works great for cake dummies!! In case you can't find any shrink wrap`

I got mine at a company that sells moving boxes and other moving supplies. If you have a Container Store near you, they have it, too. It's about four inches wide - perfect for the sides of the dummies. They actually call it stretch wrap. It comes on a roll with a little cardboard handle sticking out of it. You can stretch it around the dummies and then apply a little heat to snug it up and neaten it. Works great.
