Here is a super simple topiary you can make in no time!
How To Make A Super Simple Topiary;


Materials Needed: (this is for one topiary)


Dowel


Styrofoam


Artificial greenery ball


Glue or hot glue


Florist wire or bread tie (what I used)


Spanish moss


Pot of your choice to match your decor
Directions:


1. Place your styrofoam in the pot and secure it with glue or hot glue.


2. Next center your dowel in the middle of the styrofoam and push it in. I painted my dowel green. I also pushed it all the way to the bottom of the pot to help make it more stable.


3. Now add your greenery ball to the top of the dowel. The one I used had a mesh type structure under the greenery that I could run a wire through. I used a bread tie to attach the ball to the dowel and then used a glob (yes, that it the technical term- glob) of hot glue at the bottom ball around the dowel to also hold it in place.


4. Place Spanish moss around the top of the pot to hide the Styrofoam.
I made 2 of these and they are on the shelf of my hood of the stove. If you want more details just head over to my blog!
