ok was not sure where to share this but I found these neat tools called hot wires. they cut styrofoam like
butter. So this is my 2nd project I have done with these I LOVE THESES things. I cut letters out with my
cricut and then traced them on the styrofoam then used the hot cutters.
Ok I have 9 mo till my dd sweet 16th, but I have started tonight working on decorations for the party.
she wants to have a "sweet " decoration theme; candies, cakes, cookies, pies ect. So everything will look
like it can be eaten! I made this mirror decoration because what 16 girl does not want to look at herself!
all the candies are made with stryofoam that I cut with my hotwire tools and glued to a base that
I cut out of styro foam too. Actually the whole thing (except the mirror) is made from foam it is
supper light!
I just keep thing of the posibilites with my cutter and the hot wires!

Oh m y gosh.. Great job.. those do look good enough to eat..LOL

How cool is that? Now I'm off to search hot wires.

I had one of those tools years ago (may still have some where) It was battery operated and I loved it it ran off 2 size D batteries.I loved the way it would seal the Styrofoam leaving no mess Before the tool I was using a knife blade in a jig saw to cut.

Where did you get it at and how much are they running?

How did you make the chocolate covering? This is just sooooooooo COOL!!!

Great job! Extra credit points for getting such a great "jump start" on this. I would've waited until the night before. lol

Thanks for all the coments

The chocolate coating is just brown paint, I used the hot glue gun and drizzled it on top to look like extra
chocolate and then painted it
