How to make a Christmas tree without pine using oasis floral foam items

  • - Insert the foam brick into the basket.
    Add some refolded paper between the brick and basket if necessary.
  • - Insert the bamboo stick into the brick.
    Wind Christmas ribbon around it.
    Fix the ribbon to the bamboo stick with some little pieces of double sided tape in strategic points.
  • - Insert the foam sphere at the end of the bamboo stick.
  • - Arrange artificial branches in the foam sphere evenly, then poinsettias.
  • - At this point insert berry sprays trying to fill your arrangement evenly.
  • - Hide the foam brick with the moss.
    Add other Christmas decorations on the moss (if you want) as you can see in the photo.
  • - Your Christmas decoration is ready!
  • - Once Holiday season is finished, you can modify this decoration.
