You can handmake young fern shoots with a variety of bud sizes, and a variety of lengths by using pipe cleaners or flower stem wire to curl them as loose or as tight as you prefer. The flexible spikes will give you the ability to place them in dirt, sand, or stone … with the adjustability to curl/coil them for the perfect look.
These life size Fiddleheads can be made with smooth coils or woolly coils by adding some fuzzy yarn.
Your furled fronds will remind you of Spring and last forever.
