1. Measure and cut the black core foamboard (30 by 20) into 3 equal lengthwise pieces. The first two are the front of the wall unit.
2. Measure and cut the third piece into four equal lengthwise pieces; these will form the two supports on the back of each piece of foamboard.
  • If you are lucky enough to have a rabbet cutter or a matting tool that cuts on an angle, cut the foamboard accordingly.
3. Affix the two supports to the back of the big piece using hot glue, household cement glue or some other type of glue that will support the weight of the lights.
4. After the glue has cured, measure where the light boxes will go and cut a 2 in square in the center if you are using rope light.
5. Put mounting screws and wire in on one end of foamboard (better pic on next step)
