OK ... here I go. 2012 is the Year of the Dragon. I decided we needed a dragon for Lunar New Year. I decided to use styrofoam and floral oasis as the base of the dragon. My friend, Laura, came over one day, and we decided to assemble the base of the dragon.
First, I gathered up various forms of styrofoam. For the base of the head, I used an Omaha Steaks color. We flipped it upside down so that the open part of the cooler forms the hat.
I cut two circle layers of foam, one about 2 inches bigger than the other. We glued the largest piece directly to the foam cooler. We glued the smaller piece centered on the larger one.
We blew up about 6 small balloons to use to give a little shape to the head of the dragon. We took the top of the styrofoam cooler, cut it in half, and then put it on the back of the base.
