Polystyrene shapes

What are polystyrene shapes?

Polystyrene shapes are lightweight and versatile bases that can be used for countless crafting projects. Because they are easy to cut, paint, or cover, they are especially popular among beginners and children, but also loved by experienced makers who enjoy experimenting with texture and decoration. Polystyrene shapes come in different forms such as balls, cones, and hearts, making them a perfect starting point for seasonal decorations, festive ornaments, and creative DIY gifts.

Different types of polystyrene shapes

At Vaessen Creative, you can find a wide variety of polystyrene shapes within our craft shapes collection. They can be decorated with paint, markers, glitter, fabric, or sequins, and are easy to personalise for any occasion. Many crafters combine them with wooden shapes for a rustic effect, metal rings for festive hanging decorations, metal shapes for a modern twist, or acrylic craft shapes for a sleek finish. Their lightweight structure makes them suitable for both small and large projects, without adding extra weight.

Creative hobbies & projects with polystyrene shapes

Polystyrene shapes are a wonderful base for many hobbies. In crafting with children, they are perfect for fun projects such as glitter-covered ornaments or painted animal figures. In Christmas crafting, polystyrene balls can be transformed into baubles, snowmen, or even festive garlands. Another inspiring idea is to use them in spring crafting, where egg or flower-shaped designs can be decorated with bright colours and patterns to welcome the season. Their versatility ensures that polystyrene shapes can be adapted to almost any theme or creative idea.

Why choose polystyrene shapes for your projects?

One of the main advantages of polystyrene shapes is their simplicity and ease of use. They are inexpensive, lightweight, and safe for children, making them accessible for everyone. Despite being easy to work with, they still offer plenty of room for creativity, as they can be layered, glued, or covered with different materials. Polystyrene shapes are ideal for seasonal decorations, school projects, or quick DIY gifts. Whether you prefer simple designs or want to try more advanced techniques, they provide endless opportunities to get creative.
