This was a harder project for me as I hadn't made anything like this before. Materials: small pot, berry picks (about 55 berries) hot glue gun, small styrofoam cone, reindeer moss, stick from my yard, spray paint and cardboard.
I saw one of these online and really liked it, but couldn't find a true topiary for a price I wanted to pay so I got creative. I sprayed the pot a gold / brown color. Next I went to work gluing the berries to the styrofoam cone. Then I shoved the stick into the bottom of the cone. I cut the cardboard into a circle just large enough to fit into the top of the pot and not slide down. I cut a small hole in the middle of the cardboard. I glued the cardboard to the top of the pot, then shoved the stick into the berry cone. Last I glued the reindeer moss onto the cardboard around the top of the pot and ta-daa!
