Ooh ooh make two I'll pay you for it! (not a fortune though please lol) but seriously make two I am interested! Don't make the branches too thin or long though as they will snap when you put them in the hot thingy ma jig.i actually think i might make a specialized tree sculpture out of fired terra cotta clay thats in the shape of a tree but when you get to the top it would have special grooves and branches for the moss to cling onto....hooray for art class!You could try different wood opposed to drift wood. E.g. If you go to a reptile store they usually have treated tree roots which could easily look like tree trunks in fish tanks. Or redwood branches from aquatic suppliers. Try www.aquaessentials.co.uk let me know how you get on and which moss you pick, as I am doing the same when I can get all the bits I'm looking for. You might like red crystal shrimp, type that into google images. Good luck.thanks for replying so fast everyone. So i had an idea that is, what if you found a pece of drift wood that at the top had little banches that looked like an empty tree, and so from there take fishing line and wrap it in all angles around the drift wood 'prongs' so the moss would have several places to attach to inbetween the drift wood 'prongs', and also creating a fuller canopy......? and any types of moss that might make this possible would help! ricca?
