I made a quick and dirty one once. It worked for what I needed. The base was 3 bamboo poles poked into a coffee can, then filled with that foam insulation stuff in a can. The tops are actually plastic/paper (weatherproof) fake Ferns. I wrapped spagnum moss or spanish moss or something around the top of the poles to 'blend' the ferns with the bamboo. Burlap would have been better, or a combo of the two.
