Quick-start guide

1. Start with a clean Styrofoam Ball and choose your preferred decorating method.
2. Prime or apply a thin coat of paint to improve adhesion and color vibrancy.

4. Once dry, attach a string or hook for hanging, or glue on lightweight accessories to enhance texture.

Tips for best results

• Use foam-safe adhesives to avoid damage; test a small spot first if you’re unsure.
• Protect surfaces when painting or glittering—styrofoam can shed or warp with certain solvents.
