1st- Find one of those fake plants in a wicker basket. You can find these in thrift store, rummage sale, garbage, etc.

2nd- Saw off the base of trunks from the wicker pot.
3rd- Take off the extra small branches from one of the trunks. This makes the tree fuller.
4th- Drill hole into trunk and insert and glue the extra small branches.
5th- Cut all the leafs in half.
6th- Start shaping the leaves into small oval, raindrop or any other leaf shape.
7th- Save all the cut off leaves. Remove the plastic stems on the back. You are going to use these as your extra leaves.
8th- Cut out extra leaf shapes from the left over 1/2 leafs. Hot glue onto the branches. (repeat, repeat, etc.)
9th- Cut to length
10th- Make a stand and screw into base.
You should get something like this. I still need to add more leaves.
