How to Make a Model of a Pond
- 1). Select a mirror in the shape of the pond you wish to create. Mirrors come in a variety of shapes at craft stores.
- 2). Choose a sheet of wood as your base. Position the mirror on top of the wood and trace around the mirror to mark the spot. Apply hot glue to the base and press the mirror on firmly to secure it.
- 3). Apply super glue to the surface of the wood where you want to create the landscape using the craft moss, boulders using the small rocks, and the pebbles, sand and earth for the ground and pathways. Trim the moss to create tree trunks--the moss is light enough to simply glue the bottom of the moss trunk to the wood base to create a small standing tree.
- 4). Decorate the edge of the mirror pond with moss, faux grass and rocks. Use toothpicks and small paper labels to mark plant ideas and where you might want to plant them around your real pond.
