Has anyone tried this? I got tired of spending so much on plants for the tat, so I bought a tube of aquarium silicone, and a couple of "bushes" from work. I cut them apart and filled the bottom of a well rinsed Jello cup with the silicone.
Bent the cut ends of the wires at an angle, and stuck them down in the silicone. and let it dry. [One bush makes about 4 plants depending on what and how you use it] So instead of 2-3$ a plant, I got 4 for about 3$ plus the cost of the silicone.
I'll be adding another layer of the silicone to make sure all of the wires are really covered well, and then cutting them apart. I'll post pics of them when I am able.
