Working with Foam - A simple and clear explanation of the different kinds of foams for crafting including XPS, EPS and styrofoam.
This is a tips and tools video where I show you all kinds of great techniques for working with foam. We start out by taking a look at the more popular types of foam including Styrofoam. And did you know that cups and coolers are not styrofoam? That is a common mistake.
I show you what my favorite foam is for arts and crafts projects. It is called XPS (Extruded Polystyrene) And it is readily available.
And I show you a bunch of great tips for cutting, working, sculpting and gluing XPS foam so you can make all kinds of projects.
