Styrofoam Pins and Magnets
This project involves clip art decoupage to styrofoam
shapes (meat tray or paper plate). A pin that I made
with meat tray styrofoam was mistaken for a ceramic pin.
This project is rated VERY EASY to do.
What You Need
- Printed pictures
- Styrofoam meat tray or paper plates (paper plates make a thinner backing)
- Plaid Royal Coat Decoupage or Mod Podge
- Tacky glue
- Metal pin and/or magnet for back of pin
How To Make It
- Choose or print
small dove pictures or
small St. Patrick's Day pictures
that would be a good size for
a pin or magnet. Color with non water based markers if necessary. Here is a link for Barryís Clip Art Server.
- Cut the design out and glue or decoupage it to the styrofoam
backing chosen.
Cut the styrofoam around the design. If you cut the paper, there
is a good chance of tearing it.
- Paint the design and the sides of the thicker backing
with mod podge. Let dry.
- Glue or tape chosen backing onto back.
