How to Put Green Moss on Styrofoam

Styrofoam, which comes in many shapes and sizes, is useful in creating floral arrangements, craft projects, topiaries and other decorations for your home. Green moss is one of many items you can use to cover the Styrofoam base and give your project a more natural appearance. The process is fairly easy and also adds a professional look to your floral design. Green moss is available at craft and hobby stores, discount stores, florists and in many garden supply stores.
