TOP 5 supplies you need for DIY party decorations and where to find them fast!

Here's what you need. No messing around. 

Fast and easy resources for what you need to

make your own party decorations.


FOAMCORE

This is a good size and an easy thickness to cut
with the tool coming up next.




#11 scalpel blades and holder to get those 
sharp clean cuts and easy to get into points and corners.


Rustoleum 2X comes in lots of colors and is highly
pigmented to get one coat coverage. 
Glossy or satin.
It dries fast yet slow enough to allow for
some glitter sprinkles if that's your jam.




Martha makes glitter and sometimes you need a special color.
Sometimes you just need alot and basic colors.
We love glitter around here and...yeah...I know it's messy...
but it's so cool!



We've tried lots of brands but 
3M Super 77 is
really our favorite. 
Spraying one side is usually enough.
If you spray both sides that you are
putting together don't expect to be
able to remove it easily.



Now get busy.

If you get stuck and need some advice or
additional things, shoot us an email.
We'll try to help.

If not, carry on.
Have fun. 
These items will make it easier.

Oh....one last thing I forgot.
Bonus Tip #6:

Get yourself a 24" 
It doesn't slip on the foamcore 
and it's so much better than a 
wood one that gets all chewed up.

NOW I've just made your life even easier!
