Celebrate the spirit of the festive season by making and hanging your family's own creations on the Christmas tree! From colourful baubles to creative Christmas tree ornaments, Pratley FrogzEggz® is a biodegradable, hand-mouldable plastic that allows you to unleash your festive creativity this holiday season. Visit the Pratley facebook page for even more ideas for using FrogzEggz®, or visit their website: https://www.frogzeggz.com
The name FrogzEggz® is derived from the opaque, plastic material that, after being heated in hot water, clumps together to form a transparent, pliable mass that resembles frogs’ eggs. You can shape FrogzEggz into a wide range of objects, and the whole family can get involved in making festive decorations.
Get crafting with FrogzEggz® and make your very own miniature reindeer ornament.
GOOD TO KNOW: If your miniature reindeer or tree ornament is not exactly how you want it? No problem! An added advantage of FrogzEggz® is that it can be reused multiple times by re-submerging your design in hot water until it softens, allowing you to remould.
HOW TO USE FROGZEGGZ:
FrogzEggz® is heated to 60°C in water for it to become a malleable soft plastic that will be ready for use in about a minute or as indicated by changing colour from opaque to transparent.
When removing FrogzEggz® from the hot water, it is advisable to use a spoon or similar instrument to avoid scalding.
The malleable material is easily scooped out as a massed-together clump, whereupon it can be moulded by the user. Although still warm, its insulating properties render it easy to handle while forming and shaping. The required shape is then simply placed directly in cold water for it to set and harden quickly.
You can also add powder pigments to FrogzEggz® to achieve different colours, including Pratley Glow-Powder, a new glow-in-the-dark pigment, for added variety and creativity. Powder-form pigments are simply sprinkled and mixed into FrogzEggz® while it’s still pliable, until a uniform colour consistency is achieved.
FrogzEggz can also be painted with acrylic or oil-based paints if desired.

Separate components or elements can be stuck together by heating the surfaces and fusing them together, or by using Pratley Powda Bond or Pratley Superglue adhesive.
