Could you make this into a tree? (If so, suggestions how?) I see the orange tree video but I like this bark even better. Thank you!
Sure! Just find more branches, or a larger branch that looks like a bare tree.
Hi Lia I have looked everywhere and cannot find a 2″ styrofoam ball they are either 1.8″ or 2.3″. Which should I use? Or do you have a resource for a 2″ ball? Thanks
You can use either size and even both. These little guys grow in a variation of sizes in nature.
This is my first day as a member. Are we able to access this content prior to our membership date, because I cannot find a playback for the Satsuma Branch anywhere! Please help!
Hi Pammie,
Yes you can access all projects prior to your membership start date! The video for this project is in the post, it is the second image down 🙂
Hi! I absolutely loved making this, but want to make some lemons. Do you have any suggestions for what I could use as a base for the fruit? Obviously, a round ball won’t work. Thanks! Janet.
Hi Janet,
I would suggest using a styrofoam egg as the base! You can shape it a bit with your hands before covering with paper. I would suggest using these eggs https://www.amazon.com/Floracraft-EG25H-Styrofoam-2-5-Inch-1-875-Inch/dp/B001IKGKS2?ref_=ast_bbp_dp
How many leaves have you used on each branch?
Hi Melanie,
We used about 15 leaves for each branch!
