Go-to-Greens: The Arborvitae

The arborvitae branch, without question, is one of my favorite go-to-greens. It doesn't quite matter, whether I'm using it for its unique hue or for its ability to drape, because the texture is a show-stopper either way.

See how it sparkles in a boxwood tree design,

for my sister's living room.

It even makes a nice accoutrement for a petite herb design,

and complements a succulent boutonniere, perfectly. This guy won second place! Don't hesitate to go out on a limb, because foraged greens can prove to be quite effective when trying to design something a little out of the ordinary.
