This is how I made a tropical ivy.

Necessities:

Look Mata Hari part 4 |

- Have long pieces of iron dread, of different heights, as many as you like.
- Bind them together as an bunch of flowers en put a new piece around it at the trunk, so that it is thicker then the branches.
- Use as much as needed till you reach the wished thickness.
- Wrap it around with brown flower binders tape, so, that there is no iron seen anymore.
- The result is not very strict, but the result is, to my opinion, much more lively.
- Don’t you want this, wrap as long till its smoother.

Leaf Small Fern $5.00
End ball stick
- They come in different sizes.
- Do this on a soft undergrounds, a mouse mat is very handy to use.
- Attention! Make sure that there is an extra layer on it, because when you use real rubber, it can come off.
- Next stick the leaves upon it, let it dry very well, before you glue the flowers.
- Don’t do it to decent and easily use the worse punched leaves.
- On a real tree or ivy are worse leaves and flowers as well and it makes it more natural. This shape of punch I used for the leaves.

The flowers are from an American punch. 3/32-5 Petal $42.50 ( Hanky Panky Crafts )
Much pleasure with the workshop.
When you make something yourself, it would be very nice if you should share it with me.
I would place your photos on the side if you would like that.
