This week I tried creating my own small pocket forest. I wanted to experiment on the best way to attach the trees to the card and the moss to the branches and also what moss, lichen, and branches worked best in creating the effect of a New Zealand native forest.
I found that, although handy, the lichen I collected didn’t give a realistic look to the trees but was better used for shrubs and plant growth on the forest floor. I liked how the moss I used was such a vibrant green but I am not sure how long it will hold its colour.
After looking at other peoples mini pocket forests I was able to learn ways and techniques of making it look more realistic and natural.
