When cutting the Styrofoam, try using a very hot knife and use the back edge. It melts the Styrofoam instead of cutting it and doesn't leave all of those little static cling balls behind.
Trust me, the styrofoam will break, never decomposing, and those nearly invisible particles will enter your body through your mouth and nose and your children's mouth and nose. It is not good.
Great tip, thank you!
Sounds good to me!
you can get a foam cutter at walmart in florals right where their foam is for about $7 if you do much foam cutting or a wood burner works well too. I bought one just because I like using DT's foam board for stuff. Blessings all!
Thank you!
A much easier and cleaner way to cut styrofoam is either a soldering or wood burning tool or nail polish remover with a Q-tip.
If you use the acetone method please be aware that this combination of styrofoam and acetone will always create toxic fumes. You will need to wear a mask and work outside.
Nail polish & Qtip must melt it? Clever trick to know. Thank you.
@@mamacitabambi3558 , yes, the nail polish melts syrofoam, but just putting some on a Q-tip is perfect for a clean cut!
@@jbartsy1 so the Q tip will act like a knife???
@@retro.x a knife or gouging tool, the Q-tip has to be wet and it have to be an acetone polish remover, yeah the acetone is strong smelling but I'm sure there are fumes with using a styrofoam got tool also.
Very pretty!! You could also add the jem stones to the inside of the metal rings for more shimmer!
That was my thought also
The faux flowers + the faux candle inside of the ring is a Real Show Stopper 🤩! Thanks for sharing
Creativity is alive and well! I really love that.
I think I would like to recreate this with the flowers!! It is absolutely beautiful!! Thank you for sharing!! ❤️
That's very pretty. Definitely something for a wedding or bridal shower. The titles for some of these videos is hilarious though. I think the majority of people buying splatters screens at the Dollar Tree is to use them as splatter screens. 🤣
😂
I use my crock pot outside when the food is done, remove the glass lid. Put the splatter cover to let the food cool. Then you can safely bring the food into house.
I love them both but I think if I do the flower centerpiece I would use a taller candle holder. Both are beautiful!
That was my thought exactly I think because of the size of it it the little bitty candle looks lost 🕯🎆🕯
I agree! I think a big vase or other small vase with fresh flowers would be lovely!
Very cool idea! I'm going to do this design but hang a Disco ball from above so you get lighted mirror tracers everywhere. Thanks for the great idea!
The disco foam would be too way heavy
@@ingridqz1207 I'm thinking maybe she isn't going to make the disco ball 🎆🕯
@@badabing9143 more like a Faceted crystal. :)
Cute idea. I agree, a real candle will melt the hot glue.
My dollar tree sells packs of the large metal rings. So that is an option too instead of the splatter screen! ☺️
Yeah that looks like a pain taking that wire mesh out of there
You can glue the pointed end of gem to a silver pony bead also found at $ tree to have a flat surface!
I think this would be just as beautiful without the hoops too; so many options!
Splatter screen is actually GREAT 4 Draining grease
You could use a soldering iron or a woodburning tool and just melts through that so much easier!
I was not sure I was going to be a fan in the beginning, but you knocked it out of the park!! Awesome job 👏!
A very pretty idea for the centre of the table while dining with good friends. I love this idea....very pretty indeed. I will do one of these after getting a few items shown here. Thanks for sharing your idea.
AT FIRST I SAID "I DONT KNOW ABOUT THIS😩" BUT AFTER YOU HAD COMPLETED THIS WONDERFUL PROJECT, I LIKE "WOWWWW" GREAT JOB. ❤❤👍👍
I love the flowered one. It’s so pretty. Ty.
Very pretty! But I would put a little bigger candle holder
Yeah, that tiny votive candle leaves a lot of weird open space in the middle. A pillar candle would work so much better.
Also a bigger real candle will catch the mirror and crystals better
WOW! That's very beautiful,I would have never thought of using dollar tree items 😂Your very creative!! Love your video.
Love it! Thank you for the ideas!
One of the beautiful handcrafted piece of art I ever seen
Beautiful I think it would great wedding centerpieces
Having a vacuum cleaner handy is great for cleaning up the mess from the Styrofoam.
These would look very pretty at a wedding table prom or other type of formal setting as well. I wonder if there is a way to hang them safely to for some extra along walls or windows at a party to.
It’s beautiful. I really love it. You are very creative
Absolutely It's Been My Pleasure
Love Love Love the Pink
💓🌿💓🌿💓🌿💓🌿💓
Sweet Night Wishes
Very pretty!
Thats a lot of Dollar Tree items for one piece. What was the cost for a completed piece? Maybe $15?
Awesome idea! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome look 👌🏾 I'm going to try this diy 😀
Gorgeous! ❤️
That turned out really pretty! I can see so many uses for that design. But I have to say- until you put the mirror on it and adding the bling, my thought was “ wow, she’s making rabbit ears”! Great project!
Hahaha rabbit ears that's a good one 💭 ❣
Really cool ideas! Thank you!
I love it. I am going to try it but I'm going to put the garland around the circle parts and then add my blink to it. I am also going to use a bigger candle holder. Thanks for the project. It's amazing 🤩❤️🤩
You lost me when you covered up the mirror
Beautiful!
Instead of cutting the styrofoam couldn’t you just heat the section of the ring up with a torch then insert it to the styrofoam?
These are so pretty thank you
This would be a nice wedding decoration.
I love that idea💡thanks for sharing 🤗
I love this!!
Since you are covering the mirror, you could use a wood disk instead, perhaps a birch disk would look pretty, or another background...the mirror is covered up with foam and flowers, this might give a great 'live edge'...Blessings!
Looks great. Why destroy a splatter screen but use a set of macrame rings? Also, I think since the round mirror wasn’t beveled, that I would wrap a single row of bling wrap around the outer edge of it-more finished that way. I really love this concept tho!❤️
That's really pretty and I appreciate your clear instructions 😊
Very pretty great idea 💡💕🥰
SO pretty! How do you think of these things?!
That was awesome amazing I love glam so talented I can’t wait to see more
They are beautiful
So Pretty Luv Em Both 💙
Amazing 💞 👏
Just heat the rings and stick them into the foam
Don't need the styrofoam, just an inverted wine glass
These would be pretty for a wedding or anniversary party.
Do we need to watch and listen to every little cut-
I also get very impatient with certain videos, but don't want to miss out on content. So I click on settings (above) and then select Playback speed. This time I went for 2x.
Honestly, I usually just skip to the end to see the finished product! 😁
I love it. Thank you for sharing
Amazing!!! How do you come up with these ideas???
I'd put gems on the inside of the ring too, but wow, love this
Lovely & original
You can also use a wax candle on your knife to cut Styrofoam with
The Dollar Store by me has round rings in the Floral Dept in bags. think 3 to a bag. Would that be easier then buying the splatter screens and taking the screens out. Yours came out real pretty
I agree but all dollar trees don't carry the same items. Also the grease screens are always usually there

Those are beautiful
Great idea and something I would make
Beautiful.
Lovely 🥰
Very creative
Pretty!
Beautiful 😉🦋
Thank you
Oh that is so nice beautiful!!!
Flower arrangement foamy blocks would work also
Legend has it that Kathy is still carving a foam block somewhere 🤔 lol 😆
Love this
What happened to the handles od the splatter screen? How did you remove them? Ty.
Very pretty
Oh those are awesome
Really nice. Be well.
Very nice 👍👍
Pretty cool
Beautiful 🌹🌹
These would make pretty centerpieces for a wedding
“Make sure it’s centered” and the glues just about every component off center
This is really pretty but I would put the gems on the inside of the rim also.
PRETTY COOL
It's a great idea
The smartest thing that should be on everyone's mind right now should be to invest in different streams of income that are not dependent on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in gold, silver and digital currencies (BTC ETH...).
Could you like heat the ring and then melt the Styrofoam instead of using a knife to cut it🤔
Sorry, I fell asleep while you were attempting to cut the grooves. I'm sure it turned out beautiful.
Where did you get the gems?
What is the point of the mirror?
Beautifu
Where did you buy the glass gems please?
I've seen them at Dollar Tree, sold by the bag. But I think those might be plastic gems instead of glass... not sure
Wow vesica PICES woman at the st yea and kudos c a lovely yea good teaching thank u
Very nice ,but to much time for me personally, but to each his own...
Beautiful butvi didnt see what you used the splatter screen for???
She used only the rims.
👍😊
The sound of a knife cutting Styrofoam is my nails on a chalk board. I had to watch in silence. 😵💫🥴
ME TOOOOOO!! EWWWWWWWWWW
Lol
Rethink camera angles
Glue gun would also
I hate to be a kill joy! But ........what was the point in doing all the white polystyrene, the mirror etc .prior to putting on the roses as .....!!!!!!they are not seen???
