It’s the most wonderful planters of the year.
What happens here
Continue layering different types of evergreen branches, such as Fraser Fir, Balsam Fir, Boxwood, and Mahonia, working inwards and upwards from the base layer. Vary the types of greens to add visual interest, texture, and different shades of color. Fill in any gaps and build volume, aiming to replicate the fullness shown in the inspiration picture.
Goal: Add depth, texture, and fullness to the planter with diverse evergreens
