Topiary, or the tree of happiness, can increasingly be seen in the interior. Firstly, it is very beautiful, and secondly, it brings goodness to the house - its top is made in the shape of a ball, and it has symbolized the sun since ancient times, which was a symbol of unity, infinity and constant movement.

You can make topiary for yourself, or you can give it as a gift.

    I’ve been wanting to make a topiary for a long time, but I thought I wouldn’t be able to do it, the technology seemed too complicated. But I tried to make it, it turned out very nice, now it’s worth the money and decorates the room.
