Here are several good sites that might help you ~ I think maybe the hot glue would 'melt' the styrofoam?

Try permanently fixing the tops and wire loops to the ornaments with hot glue or silicone glue. Once the tops are dried and secure take a florist pick,the things made of wire that look like long staples, and run it through the ornaments loop dip the ends into silicone glue and push into the styrofoam wreath. Try a wreath made of floral foam...it seems denser than regular styrofoam and may hold the picks better. Since silicone glue takes several hours to cure,you may need to work in small sections at a time to allow the glue to get a good grip.

My ornaments have gone awol. I had to go to dollarstore to buy some so we could decorate the tree lol. I have no clue where I stored them.. But I really like this one porcelain angel, ive had it since I was like 15, I like the three felt elves my grandma gave my kids, we used to have one in our tree when I was little and they reminds me of that one. I also like an ornament my daughter got from preschool last year, it has her picture in it and its just a cute picture lol I really hope they turn up from somewhere at somepoint..

this is what is would do. buy a metal wreath frame at someplace like joann fabrics and then fasten them to the metal base with wire thru the area on the top of the ornament that the christmas tree hangers go thru. to cover the spaces where you'd see the metal framework underneath i'd wrap it with ribbon of the same color as your bulbs.

put rags to ornaments in your search engine and there are some really good ideas on that for what you are after.
