old lights, faded greenery, and the too tall stem.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwhAGEgmuAZx45dcPdF2ps0TCUqOc0zbUGI-5QL4A0PyVTdKoSunNlSQfr4s_MYPqqxAPhI6fWHpRR6EXGDRRN1AuckHvpPjUcbpeMo4vuOmv-Lg35aKxtHJ2NmwVROi7ucOBDMRgpFcg/s400/joysofhome+406.jpg)

love that!
Wow, that's bigger than I thought from the first picture, Joy! Great new look for your topiary. They are so great for incorporating some greenery into displays. I wish there was a way to avoid the blisters though!
MUCH better!
P.S. I just bought a new glue gun that uses hot glue, and low temp glue - it's been great not to burn my fingers anymore!
I never would have thought to do that. so cute and inventive! :)
