I made a styrofoam phone stand to have in your house and use when needed to hold up your phone and store other items like your headphones or chargers. This can be useful when watching a movie and not wanting to hold your phone yourself. I decided to use styrofoam because there have been many times when I get packages and just throw out the styrofoam, but I thought of a way to repurpose it.

Supplies

Styrofoam
Exacto knife (any cutting tool)
Toothpicks or glue
Ruler

OPTIONAL:

Card stock paper

Step 1: Measure Styrofoam Needed

Depending on what phone you have these measurements may vary. You need three pieces of styrofoam, one base and two side pieces. It's best if you mark these pieces first.

Base - 6 by 6 1/2

Sides- 4 by 6 1/2

Step 2: Cut Styrofoam

Cut your styrofoam to fit your measurements. I used an exacto knife, but any sharp cutting tool you have will work.

Step 3: Put It Together

First, grab your base piece and place it down. Then grab one of your side pieces and glue that on the back edge of your base. If you use toothpicks, stick them on the side piece mid-way and then insert them into your base. Then grab your other side piece and angle it against the piece you just added.
