How to Create Teleflora’s BOO-TIFUL BATS
Materials for T177-1A
• 2 wired holly leaves
• 24-gauge florist wire
• black floral tape
• black spray paint
Instructions
1. Place two holly leaves (wired works best) together
face to face, and attach at stem with 24-gauge
florist wire.
2. Tape over wire with floral tape (black if available,
otherwise green is fine).
3. Separate leaves to form bat shape. If you are using
wired leaves, you can make it more “animated.”
4. Paint with black spray paint. Allow the leaves to dry
completely before handling.
5. Attach bats to the arrangement with exposed wire.
