How to create a topiary from a wire hanger. This project is simple and easy.

Don't you just love those topiarys that you see at the store....but don't love the price tag? Why not make your own? Here's an easy way to create one with a wire hanger and some ivy. #itching4spring

    Very pretty and so simple to do!! I have tons of ivy and it roots very easily. Think I know what I'll be doing soon. Sounds like you found some long lost friends as well!!

    I think I'll try this to flank both sides of my front door. Very pretty!

    Sheryll, I am so sorry! I think it's fixed, now. I just switched over to Wordpress and there are a few bumps along the way!

    I love the idea! I throw out (recycle) so many wire hangers! My sister has the Ivy and I have the pots!

    I was thinking of using Wisteria vines for mine. I have some types of Ivy that are taking over or are very invasive, so I will stay with Wisteria I think.
