Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare your workspace by laying down newspaper or craft paper to catch debris.
2. Using pruning shears, trim the juniper twigs into manageable 3-4 inch pieces.
3. Starting at the top of the Styrofoam ball, attach a juniper twig by pushing the base gently into the foam or securing with a small piece of floral wire.
4. Continue attaching twigs closely around the ball, working in layers and slightly overlapping to cover the foam completely.
5. Use floral wire to secure any loose or larger twigs, ensuring fullness and stability.
6. Once the ball is fully covered and looks even, add decorative elements like small pine cones or berries by wiring or gluing them onto desired spots.
7. Attach a loop of ribbon or twine at the top for hanging by pushing a small pin or wire into the foam and tying the ribbon securely.
8. Fluff and adjust the twigs to create a rounded, balanced appearance.
9. Display your juniper greenery ball indoors or in a sheltered outdoor area to enjoy its fresh scent and festive look throughout the holiday season.
