How to Make a Vine
This is a simple vine I made for a jungle VBS.
I started out with some Backer Rod. This stuff is used for filling large gaps before caulking. It makes it so you don't have to waste a large amount of caulk on a big hole. It feels like a very long and thin pool noodle.
I got some green fun foam and cut it into the shape of leaves.

A whole bunch of leaves.
Next I used a pencil to make a hole in the backer rod. I pushed it in at an angle so the leaf would go that direction.
Next I put a drop of glue in the hole.
I rolled the leaf's bottom end and pushed it into the hole.
I also found that I could use the pencil to push it deeper into the hole.
Lather, rinse, repeat.
You could have leaves pointing in all different directions if you want.
I am OCD (I like to call it CDO that way they are all in alphabetical order) so all of mine are going the same direction.
Ta Da!
