It was pretty easy. I learned a lot as I got farther along in the process.

My biggest tips would be to...

1. Do as much of the spray foam on the ground as possible. It can be a pain to get it to cling on the underside/face of the shelves.

2. If you are adding red lights, don't fully cover the spray foam in black paint. The white areas really enhance the lava effect, and show detail. This will only work in a low light setting (it looks half finished in full light).

3. WEAR GLOVES!

I started by covering a basic shelf with foam panels...

Then I strung red LED Christmas lights on the shelf, and spray foamed the foam panels...

Painted the spray foam...

It's almost finished!
