    I melted styrofoam egg carton sections in the oven (after cutting little
    points for the petals) to make tulip shapes. I forget the temp...but it was
    low (175-200) and you literally have to SIT DOWN in front of the oven window
    and watch, because the melting occurs suddenly, and if you don't catch it
    right, it starts to sort of bubble and really "melt." Interesting shapes,
    though! Perhaps for that 3-D bulletin border someone mentioned!
