Introduction
If you want to make a unique gift, a cool decoration, or a chair that floats on air, nothing beats expanding foam to get the job done. It’s amazing how many things you can do with it. Just check out some of these ideas:
1. Create a Wicked Awesome Fence
There are so many different things you can do with expanding foam. For example, you can create a wicked awesome fence. This is an excellent idea if you want to be really creative and make your property look better than the houses around it.
Expanding foam is great because it comes in different colours, so you can choose the colour that best matches your needs. You could also add some flowers or other shapes on top of the fence if desired! The possibilities for creating unique fences with expanding foam are endless!
2. Make your own world
If you’re into making miniature worlds, this project is for you. All it takes is a balloon and a pin. First, blow up your balloon and tie off the end. Then take a pin (or something sharp) and poke three small holes in the bottom of your balloon. Now all that’s left to do is add some expanding foam to each of those holes! It will expand outwards from where you put it, creating hills or mountains around your little planetoid.
If you want to go further with this project but don’t have any expanding foam on hand just yet (and who doesn’t?), try putting some sand inside instead of expanding foam: another way to create mounds that look like hills or mountains!
3. Create unique wedding decorations
If you’re planning a wedding, consider using expanding foam to create unique decorations for your special day. Expanding foam is an excellent material to use when creating original wedding decorations.
It’s easy to make custom-shaped cake boards with expanding foam, like this one made in the shape of a heart:
Another idea is to create place cards out of expanding foam that look like seashells! This would be perfect if you are having an ocean-themed reception:
Another idea is making votive candle holders out of ice cream cones by cutting off the top and filling them with wax! These can also double as table numbers if they’re numbered on top like these ones were:
4. Make your own miniature garden for gnomes
Gnome gardens are very popular in the miniature world. They’re little worlds that you can make out of expanding foam and then place your gnomes into.
To make your own gnome garden, get a large piece of expanding foam to create the base of your garden and then use smaller pieces to make the walls, windows and door. To create a door, use a straw and poke it into the side of your base piece of growing foam until you have created an opening for your little guys to walk through! To make a window all that’s involved is using pencils or other small sticks or twigs as supports for placing over this same area on top where there is now an opening for light coming through! You can also cut holes into walls if desired so that more light will come through (or other types like rainbows).
5. Build a giant rubber duckie
- Build a giant rubber duckie
Expanding foam can be used to make your very own giant rubber duckie. You can give it different colors, paint it, and even put it in the water so that people can see how well it floats or sinks. It’s really cool to do with your friends, especially if you want to make something unique!
6. Make an oversized original sculpture
Expanding foam is a great material for making sculptures, as you can make sculptures from any shape or size. You can also make sculptures from any material, such as plastic or metal. You could even make your sculpture out of recycled materials like old newspapers, cardboard boxes, or even broken glasses. The possibilities really are endless!
You can also choose whatever colour you want to use and what texture you want the sculpture to have. Expanding foam is available in a wide range of different colours including reds, blues, yellows and purples; textures come in smooth and rough types; patterns come in stripes or spots (just like leopard print!).
If making an original sculpture isn’t enough for you then why not try some other ideas? Take a look at this article on how people have used expanding foam: http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Sculpture with more details on each idea there too 🙂
7. Make an awesome soft place to land
One of the first things I did with expanding foam was make a soft landing for my friends and I to land on after jumping out of a tree. By making a few balls of expanding foam, I could ensure that they would land safely and not hurt themselves.
You can use this same technique if you want your car to have a softer impact at the end of its life. If you’re selling a car that’s been in an accident, this is an excellent way to soften impact during sales negotiations or when driving it off your property before the tow truck arrives.
8. Design a chair that floats on air
If you’re a fan of Disney’s “Up,” then you’ll appreciate this project.
Simply blow up a balloon until it’s about the same size as the chair you want to make float on air. Place your chair on top of the balloon, then sit back and watch it hover above your head!
9. Make weird and wonderful wall art
- Expanding foam is a great material to make your own wall art.
- You can use it to create a fun and colorful wall that you can use to brighten up your room.
- If you’re feeling more adventurous, you can take the time to create a unique piece of art out of expanding foam as well!
10. Make a foamy fort for the kids to play in
If you want to make a fun fort for kids, the expanding foam can help. You can cut some pieces of foam and use them to make a large sheet of foam that is big enough for the kids to play on. Then, you could also create tunnels out of more pieces of foam by arranging them in different ways. If you have time, you could even make a cave for them! The possibilities are endless with this stuff!
It’s pretty cool what you can do with expanding foam, who knew!
Expanding foam is a great medium to work with. It’s easy to use, and you can use it in many different ways.
Expanding foam can be used as a cake decoration or even as wall art. It’s also a great way to decorate your home.
