PPF Homemade Floam Recipe

We here at the Palace have recently discovered a royal fondness for "Floam." Floam is much less messy than playdough, so it helps to keep the palace clean, but it also is a lot of royal fun every time we pull it out! Bought "FLOAM" can be expensive, but the palace has made it for mere pounds which is of course the frugal way.

Here is our royal "FLOAM" recipe.

Ingredients: 1 Tsp. Borax ( found in your grocery store's laundry aisle)

3/4 cup H2O (water - straight from the tap is fine)

1/4 cup Glue (white school, Elmers or off brand - all will work)

1 (1 Quart) zip locking bag

Food coloring (COMPLETELY optional - but the floam will discolor from hand oils eventually - so why not make it some fun color)

Approximately 6 oz. of styrofoam beads

A few royal shakes of glitter

Royal Floam Directions: 1. Dissolve Borax into 1/2 c Water in a small cup

2. In the bag, mix 1/4 cup of H2O (water) and 1/4 cup of

white glue. This is where you can add the royal food

coloring and a few royal shakes of glitter to give it that regal look if desired.

3. Add the Borax and water solution to your bag with the

water and glue solution.

4. Add the styrofoam beads

5. Seal the bag and knead the mixture until it is

thoroughly mixxed.

6. Take floam out and play.

7. Enjoy lots of royal fun!

*** TO keep your royal floam play-worthy - it should be stored in an airtight container or a zip bag!*****

Until next time, may your palace be sparkling, may your family be well fed and in good health, and your resources be plentiful, all because you choose to be wise and frugal, for both your family and your palace!
