CIY Staff Tips:
Budget-friendly memory foam pillows can be found at most mass retailers or online.Save leftover pillow pieces to create more shapes for your squishy collection, like a donut, watermelon, and other fun shapes.Add more water in small increments to your paint mixture if needed. It should be smooth, but not runny.
Steps:
1
Remove the outer cover from memory foam pillow and cut a small, square portion out of the corner.
2
With the help of an adult, slowly cut away small portions from your piece of memory foam to reach your desired shape. We made a pizza!
3
In a disposable cup, mix 1/2 Tbsp water with brown acrylic paint until fully combined.
4
Using a paint brush, paint the top and sides of the memory foam pizza shape to create
the crust.
5
Mix different colours of acrylic paint with water to add toppings like cheese, pepperoni, and peppers! Let dry overnight.
6
Once the paint has dried: squish, squish, squish!
