As I figured one or the other would ask, I made a couple of pics on the way.
I couldnt come up with something that looks like cauliflower so I made little balls with selfadhesive bandage

I had to paint it with white fabriccolor as the pink was shining through and then placed it in the middle of a fabric circle big enough to cover a 4.5 inch styrofoam ball. then I stippled around the bandageballs until it looked cauliflowery....

I made a hole at the bottom to tuck the fabric in and cut a stem out of a foam cleaningtowel, covered it with green fabric and covered the hole

I made tree smaler and three wider leafs and attached them

You are sooooo clever! I would never have thought of using that bandage material...
First the hardware stores, then harbor freight, and now the drug stores... we quilters can find supplies ANYWHERE :D:D:D

Thank you for sharing this tutorial with us!! :D:D:D

Have you ever used the salt dough recipe? 30 years ago I used to make small trees with the plastic boxwood leaves and all hand shaped fruits made from salt dough, cloves for stems,and melted wax and crayons for color.
