  4. Add a piece of scalloped paper to the top of the pot and attach a holiday sticker to the front of the pot. Attach a ribbon.
  5. Add a piece of floral foam to the painted pot and push the lollipop stick into the foam to secure it in place.
  6. Paint and glitter a chipboard star, add a brad and attach to the top of the topiary. Cut thin strips of cardstock and fold them like an accordion. Add them to the pot.
