Great looking scenes, CNJ999, and a nice mix of colours on the trees. :thumb::thumb:
At the craft store I did see some white things (no clue what they were) that looked like they might work, AND they were a perfect color for birch trees are what Im trying to make. In all the articles Ive seen, they tape a few together, what do they use for tape?
Not sure what the white things might have been, although Baby's Breath has small white flowers on a delicate but nicely-shaped branch structure. You might be able to make some birch trees using them with some poly-fibre stretched over to support ground foam foliage. You'd have the paint the stems, though, as they're green.
The tape that you refer to is called florists' tape, and should be available at any craft store. It comes in many colours, including white, and is used much like friction tape - it stretches and is only slightly sticky, but it works well for holding multiple branches together.
