Such lovely plants made from masking tape, and floral wire! You never disappoint! I love that you used tea to make the potting soil for your potted plant! My Mom and I drink tea, and just throw away the used tea bags. Now, I think I can re-use the tea bags by letting them dry out, and collecting the tea leaves. You have inspired me to make some mini plants for my doll house! 😊😊 By the way, I saw some pretty flowers in some of your pots. Will you make a video tutorial on how to make the flowers?? I'd surely watch that! Thanks for the tutorial, Little Gretchen's Workshop! Take care! ~Janet in Canada

That is a very good idea to dry out used tea bags! I drink alot of tea too, but over the years i have certain ones that i don't really enjoy, so I use those for my "soil". Yes i do have that random floral pot there it was in the batch of leftover items i had while I was making the PLANTS. I do plan to do some flowers soon. I have so many videos lined up and the ideas keep coming, thank you for the suggestion. Also, let me know how your plants from tape turn out.

@@jasonfrederick6564 I've seen people making palm trees for huge displays for action figures with tape and wire. Lots of videos of making trees, logs, vines for jungle scenes like for Predator or Yoda's Dagobah system hut, that sort of thing. I don't do the tabletop gaming but like Star Wars and miniatures so maybe I see it more. My Froggy Stuff channel and Where The Gnomes Live both have spooky tree tutorials and Froggy has some other plants too. Look up miniature greenhouse plants because the dollhouse world has kits for greenhouse buildings and those need plants. Some people make stores or produce stands so if you need a basket of apples you can find that too
