Here is what you need to get started. Some Dollar Store loose leaves, twisted sisal twine found in Wally World's home fix it area, and a glue gun. Oh and because I was streaming videos I stuck a cutting board underneath because I am messy.
This was hard to take a picture and do, but below I cut the twine in various sizes and put a dab of glue on the back side of the leaf, then after several tries, I came up with a genius idea. I cut the twine longer and put the dab more towards the middle and held the twine on both sides until it was almost set then made a sandwich and put the other leaf on the back side. You are gluing two back sides so the pretty side shows.
I thought I had it all done, but the little tree just needed something for the top so I had to eat a mango pop to get the stick. . . . . what a deal. I glued some of the leftover leaves on the stick and we get the finished product below.
I feel so crafty today.
