So I had a few Styrofoam squares, had them for sometime and always wanted to do something with them. I decided to look through my craft stuff to see what I had and found some wood letters, which spelled H O M E and Voila! I decided to make a hanging decor for my door.
I started by cutting 4 foam squares to a smaller size,( original size was 10 by 8 inches), I cut them to 6 1/2 by 8 inches. Then I painted them with some acrylic paint.
Next I painted the wood letters black using the acrylic paint.
Next I painted these tile like pieces gold ( I had saved them from an egg carton), figured they were going to be useful one day. I liked how they look.
Then I screwed on 2 eye hooks on the top of the foam squares(except on the top one ) and 2 cup hooks on the bottom aligned with each other. I put some glue to secure them. I also glued the letters on and a gold tile on each corner.
Lastly on the top square I added twine to make a loop used to hang on the door. You could make it shorter or longer depending how you like it to hang.
Finally I connected all the squares by connecting the eye hooks with the cup hooks. I also added a bow on top just because it looked like it was missing something and looked nicer. There it is, all done. What do you think? Would like to hear from you.
Enjoyed the project?
