 Choosing Safe Materials

When building any DIY project that will have contact with skin, safety must be your top priority.

Recommended Materials

Material	Advantages	Notes
TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer)	Soft, flexible, affordable	Needs regular cleaning; may degrade with oil-based products
Silicone	Long-lasting, hypoallergenic	More expensive; harder to mold
Memory Foam	Lightweight, inexpensive	Not ideal for wet environments
Fabric + Stuffing	Easy to sew, customizable	Most budget-friendly option

Avoid These Materials

• PVC not labeled body-safe
  
• Materials with strong chemical odors
  
• Unknown plastics from bargain stores
  
• Anything porous that cannot be cleaned
  

Basic DIY Structure Options

Option 1: Fabric Body + Plush Filling

• Easiest beginner build
  
• Light weight
  
• Customizable shapes
  

Option 2: Foam Core + Silicone/TPE Skin

• More realistic aesthetics
  
• Higher cost
  
• Requires careful layering
  

Option 3: Skeleton Frame (PVC or Wire)

• Allows adjustable posing
  
• More advanced DIY skill needed
  

Option 4: Mannequin Modification

• Very durable
  
• Already anatomically shaped
  
• Can be padded or covered with soft materials
