    How about using evergreen branches… the soft bristled ones, not the stiff prickly ones? Or fern leaves? Would these work too?

    Yes, Monday is shopping day, so I'll swing by Dollar Tree for some fall leaves. I was JUST wondering what to put on my coffee table for something a bit different this year! NOW I KNOW!
