In fact we had to adjust most of them to fit the wreaths, which aren't perfectly round, and used craft knives to do it.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11888187687405622408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-36899452204885141422022-07-19T13:33:21.062-04:002022-07-19T13:33:21.062-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11888187687405622408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-68254965099469196152022-07-15T21:18:00.504-04:002022-07-15T21:18:00.504-04:00How did you cut the foam?How did you cut the foam?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-49709383602351943042022-04-10T17:00:18.580-04:002022-04-10T17:00:18.580-04:00I agree with Lizzy; tacky glue is a great alternat...I agree with Lizzy; tacky glue is a great alternative!

We used tacky glue and wire for most our decorations, I didn't break out the glue gun till I was putting a wood cutout on mine that I knew the tacky glue would take forever to dry on and I didn't have patience for that =) Happy crafting with kids!Lizzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15955825523805190150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-2187570688682922242022-04-08T16:41:10.788-04:002022-04-08T16:41:10.788-04:00This is so fun!

Fwiw, my DT didn't have foam board in stock, so I'm using a name brand that starts with an E. I'm not sure if that means it's more difficult to remove? Can you link directly to the video from that YouTuber where they address the foam core trick? Thank you!
