New Year's Topiary





Sorry for the last minute rush of New Year's Day ideas!  I had planned on spreading these out a bit more, but it's been a crazy week.  Three of us had the flu and the fourth had surgery; all in one week!

And, Fox News has asked me to come back tomorrow for another segment!  I am very excited! 

Well, this is a fun idea that I had a lot of fun with: a New Year's Topiary!

I took some left-over ornaments (or you can buy these really cheap right now!), took the tops off, and glued them (using my lot-temp glue gun!) onto a styrofoam ball (which I also happened to have laying around!).  I inserted a dowl into one end, added a bow, and put it in a pot. 

Doesn't this remind you of the Ball the Drops on New Year's Eve!?!?  I love how cute this turned out!

(Don't tell, but I will probably bring this out for Christmas next year too!)
