Making an EVA Foam Wig for Cosplay and Halloween!

For Halloween this year, Jen Schachter takes on the ambitious project of making a larger-than-life foam wig and costume in the style of Marie Antoinette. It’s her first big EVA foam project, but Jen pulls it off wonderfully with a costume that’s equal parts period pouf and 80s glam rock. Follow along Jen’s journey patterning and fabricating this epic hairstyle and use it as a guide to make your own foam costuming wig!
