Styrofoam cups can do more than hold drinks--they can create mosaic pictures in a fence.

Since most styrofoam cups taper slightly, they fit into almost any residential and commercial chain link fence and can be arranged geometrically to write messages, create designs, and make art.

They also give a bohemian touch to utilitarian metal or a focal point to a bland yard.
