Poinsettia in a glass – this transparent container really brings the intensive red of the poinsettia to life. The natural plant decoration is extremely effective and quick and easy to make yourself. A glass in a glass is the key: pot the poinsettia in a small glass and place this in turn into a larger glass. A little bit of moss as the base looks pretty and ensures that the poinsettia sits at the right height. Fill the space between the two glasses with materials gathered from a walk in the woods. Alternate between moss, brushwood and pine and cinnamon sticks. A felt strip tied around the upper edge of the outer glass highlights the intensive poinsettia red. A little finger puppet from a toy shop, placed jauntily in the same glass as the plant, lends a cheerful touch to the arrangement.
