Craft foam Fun

Such a versatile product, this craft foam. Here are a few ideas of what to do with it:
- pencil toppers
- door hangers
- people puppets
- bookmarks

  
The funny looking man was made by Lella, without much help, and she got the idea just seeing the blue strip, quite creative, don't you think?



We made the handbag together, she had to lace (#finemotorskills) the ribbon through the holes I made with a craft punch, then decorate it with small foam cut outs(#creativity) I helped to write her name. And she can play with it now, thats the best part! 

For the handbag you need:
- one A4 sheet of craft foam, cut to a handbag shape
- some ribbon
- decorative items (we used foam cut outs, but you can use anything, sequince, glitter etc.)

What to do:
- Cut the foam into a handbag shape of choice
- make holes with a craft punch or any punch all around the edges
- lace the ribbon through, starting with half the ribbon at the top of the one side of the bag, then do the     other side and tie at the back, leaving enough ribbon for the handle
- decorate!

Will share some more craft foam ideas in the future...
