Tired of one-dimensional walls? Annemarie Meintjes shows how to add depth and texture with Styrofoam letters.
All you need
Styrofoam letters sell for between R1 and R10 each, depending on the size. A roll of double-sided carpet tape sells for R33 at Builders Warehouse.
All you do
Stick a random collection of cut-out Styrofoam letters to a wall with double-sided carpet tape. If you are doing this for a short-term display or special occasion, there’s no need to paint the letters, but it is a good idea to give them a coat of paint to protect them and extend their lifespan if you want to keep them up for a while.
