This EASY DIY Lighted Marquee Sign from Styrofoam is better than a night light. My 3 year old goes to sleep every night with this fun light up. This is a really cool and easy project to make. To get started, you will need to grab a few supplies. A piece of Styrofoam, something to cut the foam with like a xactoknfe or a Styrocutter. Some spray paint, a stencil for the design you wish to cut, and a string of battery operated lights. It's such a quick and easy project, and one your little one will LOVE!
The first step is to create the pattern you wish to cut out of the foam. I grabbed a few pins and stuck this to the foam.
Cut out your letter after it has been pinned, trying to keep the lines straight.
Use a pencil to create the holes and then spray paint.
String your lights and share your project! Super fun and easy. Head over and check out the entire tutorial on PinkWhen.

Linda Sparks on Jun 26, 2014@Heidi Colton, I wouldn't think there would be an issue with melting as you would be using " low voltage " Christmas lights for this project. My opinion of course.
