Recycle Styrofoam blocks!


What can we do with styrofoam blocks like these? I got these from my new printer. and im going to recycle them! I think there was 4 of these but i threw 2 of them away without thought. Then I found that It was convenient for me to just put my camera there so i know that its safe.

But then i was organizing my stationery set and realized that I could put pens in there! so,



I've even cut some slits on the sides so that I could put my rulers on standing, so that I would see them and easily take them out if i wanted to use them.

There was 2 holes on the end of the styrofoam and i found that i could just jab in my pendrive and my booklight on it. If i want to, I could cut more slits for cards and IDs too!



and it all fits neatly into my drawer! so now everything is clean and tidy! ^^


For my 2nd styrofoam block, I came up with the idea to make a telephone stand for my moshi moshi as i have no place to keep it after using the metal rack for clothes. I dont want moshi moshi to be out of sight or i might forget I own one! lol.
 Cutting to shape!

it was a big mess i'd tell yah, and it took sometime to cave out the right shape!
IT was all over my table, my carpet, my clothes, my hair!!!!


bought yellow acrylic paint the next day along with an acrylic paint matt varnish to finish it off.
Styrofoam cannot be spray painted because it would get damanged. 
but acrylic paint is ok, just that you need several layers to coat it well.

 Stick it to the wall! and I waited for 1 night because the varnish is not completely dry yet but i couldn't wait to mount moshi moshi on it!  so i did the next best thing! I stuck it to the wall with damage free velcro-strips! Now im considering weather to put pink feathers around the edge of the boarders!

....

MEH... oh well
