How to make a fairy house, using polymer clay (Fimo soft) and Styrofoam balls. I recommend that you use a good quality acetone. If necessary, try it before starting working. The styrofoam ball, should melt quickly after get in touch with acetone. Acetone should be the least possible time in contact with the Fimo to avoid damage to the workpiece. There are different types of styrofoam The explanation for the heat resistance is related to molecular weight. The styrofoam balls have a higher molecular weight and are therefore more resistant to heat. The balls I use are very common and easy to find on crafts stores. But they must be heat resistant! They are very used on works with E.V.A and are very compact You can make experiences before using styrofoam with fimo clay, to verify if they melt in the oven. Be creative and prudent at the same time!!! Como fazer uma casinha de fadas com Fimo e bolas de Isopor Recomendo que a acetona seja de boa qual …...more

Be creative and prudent at the same time!!! Como fazer uma casinha de fadas com Fimo e bolas de Isopor Recomendo que a acetona seja de boa qualidade. Se necessário, deve experimentar antes de iniciar o trabalho. A bola de isopor, deve derreter rapidamente, depois de entrar em contacto com a acetona. A acetona deve estar o menos tempo possível em contacto com o Fimo, para evitar danos na peça. Existem diferentes tipos de isopor A explicação para a resistência ao calor está relacionada com o peso molecular. As bolas de isopor tem um maior peso molecular o que as torna mais resistentes ao calor. As bolas que eu uso são muito comuns e fáceis de encontrar em lojas de artesanato. Mas devem ser resistentes ao calor! Eles são muito usadas ​​em trabalhos com EVA e são muito compactas Devido aos diferentes tipos de isopor, deve fazer experiencias antes de as utilizar com o Fimo para verificar se estas derretem no forno. Seja criativo e prudente ao mesmo tempo!!! Disclaimer:
