Remember my cute topiary from last Summer? I killed it in a week I think. It went bald then never sprouted one new leaf. :(
I liked her, but wasted 15 bucks on her and she died. So when I spotted these cute, (fake) boxwood spheres, for less than $4.00 a piece, I knew I wanted to make topiaries out of them.
I just used a two pieces of natural sticks. Thanks to my son for jumping out of the car for a huge branch I spotted on the side of the road. I measured how tall I wanted the stalks to be and cut the branches to size.
I hot glued the spheres onto the sticks
I used clay pots with floral foam inside and just jabbed the branches in, then covered the foam with some Spanish Moss I had on hand.
(Much better than the one from last year.)
where did you find the boxwood spheres?
ReplyDeleteI bought mine at the Christmas Tree Shop, but I did see them at Joanne's for a bit more $
