Foam Clay for modelling is a really fun material to play with, and here you have many possibilities to refresh some old toys. The airy mass makes it easy to stick to either papier-mâché, wood or any other plastic figures you may have lying around. It's a self-adhesive modelling paste filled with tiny airy beads, and a new way to play with decoration, and there are lots of colour options, so just get started.
So say adults and children alike:
"Foam Clay is especially fun to have in your hands because it has tiny beads in it" and they can be used to attach to all sorts of items and it doesn't smudge or smear and is really nice and fun to play with.
Why you should decorate shapes
It's really fun to decorate different items with Foam Clay, you can decorate boxes or figurines, or if that candlestick you got once needs to be spruced up with a nice pop of colour, then Foam Clay is the one to get out, you can shape and mix the different colours just as you please. Or if you've made different things in papier-mâché, you can cover it with the fluffy little balls. But be careful with small children if you are making papier-mâché, they can easily make holes in the papier-mâché when they squeeze the mixture.
Try a Foam Clay gift box
If you start out with one of our gift boxes, you can get started decorating or even moulding shapes yourself. It also comes with 3 modelling tools, so it's easy to create details in the figure. There are also cut-out shapes so you can make fun characters and there are thousands of options for creating your own monster. As a rule, no glue is needed, it sticks all by itself, but you may occasionally find that it doesn't really want to, and then you can help the materials with some glue. Otherwise it sticks to many surfaces such as: glass, metal cans, canvas and flamingo. So don't throw out the beetroot glass and the can of tuna, it can be decorated just fine, after it has been cleaned of course.
What is the difference between Foam Clay and Silk Clay?
Both are a bit like modelling wax, it can be moulded so you can make super fine shapes in it. When you're done playing, shaping or assembling your figures, just leave it on a piece of plastic overnight and the next morning it's dry. No need for an oven - it's just smart. If you forget a piece of Foam Clay or Silk Clay and it has dried out, just splash a little water on it and it's ready to use again. The difference between Foam Clay and Silk Clay is the consistency. Silk Clay is a smooth material and Foam Clay has small balls in it. Foam Clay is the easiest for children to work with. Silk Clay can tend to wrinkle a little when you put it on, but it expands and becomes smooth, not all children like it. It is important to store Silk Clay in an airtight container to prevent the clay from drying out, but if the worst comes to the worst, the clay can be softened with a little water.
