Materials
- 1 found branch
- Galvanised bucket with stones and chippings
- Crab apples (these are from Malus ‘Evereste’)
- Florist’s stub wire
- Ribbon cut to 26cm with diagonal ends
To make
Secure the branch in the bucket with rocks. Pour on chippings. Trim the branch to the best shape. Use wire cutters to cut a pile of 6-7cm lengths of florist’s stub wire. Make a small ring on one end. Push the other end through the base of the crab apple. Form another bigger ring and thread the ribbon, tying a loop. Hang the ribbon from the branch.
