Simple and Inexpensive Home Decor Project
12/20/2007 11:39:47 AM (Eastern Standard Time, UTC-05:00)  I have a simple and easy home décor idea that I’d like to share with you. If you’re looking for last minute Christmas gifts or even a fun family project, this might be the perfect solution for you. Dow Chemical Company has introduced STYROFOAM brand foam in 12x12 inch squares. Grab a few of your scrapping supplies and you can complete this inexpensive project in a few minutes. I used ultra-thin, super-strength Glue Dots and Towbow dry adhesive to adhere the scrapbooking paper to the Styrofoam square. I suggest using some form of dry or spray adhesive because liquid adhesive created wrinkles in the paper. I poked holes in the paper using a piercing tool and then pushed in the brads for a finishing touch. To cover up the edges, I used a black ribbon and adhered it with more Glue Dots.
The entire project took me about 10 minutes, and the possibilities are endless. I love finding inexpensive ways to spice up my home décor that I can personalize to my own style. The STYROFOAM squares and can be found at Wal-Mart or your local craft store. For more great decorating ideas, click here.

Create something. Inspire everyone.
