Christmas decorations - mistletoe sphere
We all know that mistletoe costs a fortune but is an essential part of the Christmas fun, and sadly few of us have an extensive apple orchard in our back gardens, festooned with the milky-berried parasite - if we did, we'd be flogging it at the local Farmer's Market! - but you can make a dramatic display out of a small amount of mistletoe and much cheaper but equally stunning looking items that you can pick in the garden or buy from your local supermarket or grocer's shop.
You need
- Florists foam, about a six inch block
- Chicken wire
- Florists wire
- A bunch of mistletoe
- Ivy sprigs from the garden - the flowering ones if possible, or fatsia, or any garden leaves plus some bunches of cotoneaster or holly berries, whatever you've got really
- Either 8 lemons and some green ribbon or 8 tangerines and some red ribbon
