Order of work:

1. The trunk for the topiary is pressed into the foam blank “Ball”. Glue the barrel inside the workpiece with a glue gun for creativity and glue rods.

2. On the surface of the workpiece “Ball” glue decorative tangerines, using the same tools. Mandarins are arranged in a staggered order.

3. Between the tangerines stick pine cones.

4. From sisal fiber light green roll between the palms of the balls.

5. Glue the balls of sisal fiber in the gaps between the tangerines and cones.

6. Fill the empty spaces with small decorative elements: nuts from a set of floral materials, alder cones and wooden beads. Cut the string length of 30 cm, strung two beads. At the ends of the tied knots. We tie the string on the trunk of the topiary with a bow and fix it with a glue gun and glue rods.

7. Pot “Topiary” painted with white acrylic paint, using a foam brush. Waiting for drying.
