Candle stub or paraffin

Pencil

Putty knife

Scissors

Straight pins

Sawtooth picture hangers with nails, six, OR wall

Thick, white craft glue

Optional: Dental floss

Instructions

1. Wax serrated knife with candle stub or paraffin. Measure

and mark three 12" x 12" squares on each foam sheet; cut along

lines. (Hint: Foam may also be "cut" with tightly held length of dental

floss; stand foam on edge and firmly draw floss down through foam.)

2. Use putty knife to spread thin, even coat of white glue on

front of first foam square. Adhere one sheet of paper to foam

and smooth paper with fingers.

3. Repeat Step 3 to cover all six foam squares. If desired,

pin paper at corners as glue dries. (Hint: Papers may appear wavy at

first, and will smooth out as glue dries.) When dry, remove pins.

4. Cut six 50" ribbon lengths. Beginning and ending at one

lower corner, glue ribbons around foam squares, allowing a bit

of overlap. Pin ribbon to foam until glue dries; remove pins.

(Hint: Foam is very forgiving; if paper does not exactly meet

foam edges, run edge of foam square along a tabletop, compressing foam.)

5. Glue sawtooth hanger ends to top center back of each panel.

Dip nail tips into glue and push firmly into foam through

hanger holes; let dry before hanging. Wall putty may also be

used to hang panels.
