"We're going to do a floor, this time, with leaves. I have my hot glue gun ready to go and I'm just going to put a little bit of hot glue right on the bottom where I want one of the leaves. I'm going to put it up against the sides. So it's going up the sides. This is going to represent my forest floor. We kind of overlap them. We'll put another one in here, inside, and get that one up tight. You just have to hold it for a second. Now, I want to fill in some of the other spaces, so I'm going to cut these artificial leaves, put a little bit of hot glue on the back and fill in where you think you need to fill in. You can do this with all kinds of artificial plants and it makes a really interesting bottom to your diorama. Maybe I want one in front. I think I'm going to keep this part intact with these two. Those things have just fallen off the forest floor. That's pulling up so let's put another bead of hot glue there, hold it for a moment. There! Look how great that looks."
