Vaessen Creative Styrofoam ring half flat Ø35 cm (21677)

Styrofoam is a lightweight base material that is ideal for a variety of craft projects. Styrofoam is also called styropor, polystyrene, tempex or hard foam and is available in many varieties. Think of basic shapes such as balls, eggs and wreaths, but also more complicated figures such as flowers and animals. The round Styrofoam ball, for example, is very popular as a base shape for making Christmas balls with glitter and sequins.

Styrofoam is suitable for painting and covering with water-based paint and glue. Paint a Styrofoam shape with acrylic paint, work the shape with Powertex and/or use it as a base for paper, sequins, fabric, felt, clay and other materials. You can easily pin such accessories onto the Styrofoam with pins. You can also consider covering Styrofoam with leaves, moss, bark and flowers for a natural look. For example, attach the materials with binding wire, wood glue, staples or needles, glue from a glue gun or other water-based glue.
