[#welcome] Andy <br /> <br />Galde you made it and have a great stay! <br />I looked on plam trees on the web and they cost. <br />So I was going to make some, I still might. <br />This was my way of going about it <don't know if it will work but sounds right> <br />1. craft store pick up a yard of what looks good to you as a plam leaf <br />2. sharp hobby knife <br />3. thin flashing to make like a cookie cutter plam leaf which one side would be filed to sharpness. <br />4. I was going to use pipe cleaners as trunk, just twist <br />5. buy a real nice hot glue gun <br /> <br />So I was going to cut them with plam cutter and make the trunk with brown to light brown pipe cleaners while having several at the top being your base for the leaves <proms - as we call them in landscaping>. Then hot glue them in center floding them out and out but stop because you need your last "top" prom at the top. <br /> <br />Just info, don't have to go by it [:D]
