We are doing Oz in 6 weeks. I need bushes for the munchkins to hide behind, but we are really limited in space. Any ideas how to support small pieces (4'x 4') made of 2" styrofoam so they can be free-standing without making a bulky wooden frame?< id="gwProxy" ="">< ="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" ="">

Glue on a fold out support brace, similar to those seen in foyers of picture house standee.

Or mount the bush flat onto a base of foam or board to make them free standing.

&/or If you have a 'tab' track, hang the bush profiles as you would a drape & track them on/off.
