Christmas - Topiary Tree Display

Home » Holiday Craft

Miniature topiary trees in varying shapes and colors for an original Christmas display.
Supplies:

  • Block florist’s foam 13 ½ x 4/ x 3 ½ inch (34 x 10 x 8cm)
  • Pot, 5 ½ inch tall
  • 4 branches boxwood
  • Small bauble
  • Bamboo stick, 10 inch (25 cm)
  • Kitchen knife
  • 1 floral wire (medium gauge)
Instructions:

Step 1.
Cut a block of florist’s foam into tow pieces, each 4 x 4 x 3 ½ in (10 x 10 x 8 cm). Place one on top of the other and push the bamboo stick through both of them. Use a kitchen knife to cut the foam into a four-sided pyramid, leaving a small flat surface at the top.
Step 2.
Cut the remaining foam to fit the pot, and put it inside. Set the pyramid on top, using the bamboo stick to secure.
Step 3.
Break the braches of boxwood into tiny sprigs and, starting at the bottom, push them one by one into the foam pyramid so no foam shows.
Step 4.
Gradually build up the boxwood sprigs until the foam is completely covered. To finish, slip a wire through the loop on the bauble and push it into the flat surface of foam at the top.
