How Do You Make An Ivy Topiary?
Ivy topiaries can make a room look beautiful during any season of the year. You can leave them as they are or decorate them with ribbons for the fall and winter holiday seasons. Ivy topiaries can also look fresh decorated with small roses for a springtime feel. Making your own ivy topiary is a fun way to add a personal touch to your home. Buy or make a topiary frame in the size and shape you desire. Topiary frames can be purchased at your local garden center or hardware store, or you can create your own by reshaping a wire coat hanger.
