"So now I want you to think about our ceiling. Some ceilings are going to have nothing on them but whatever color you've put up there. This ceiling, however, is going to be part of my dinosaur jungle so I'm going to add some leaves to the top of my ceiling. I'm going to take my hot glue gun, put a little bit of glue and place, and these will hang down like they would be in a tropical rain forest. Again, you may have to hold these for a moment to let the glue set, but that's OKay, it sets up really fast. Just hold it for a moment and it'll be nice because these leaves are big enough they'll sort of droop down and add a nice atmosphere to the diorama. They don't have to even on each side, one side can be heavier with foliage than the other. Just make sure they're pressed down. It takes a minute for that glue to set up. This one, I'm going to put the clue right on the leaf. I'm going to put it near our skylight so that when the light comes in, it might create an interesting shadow. Then you can flip it over and see how it looks. I think that looks great."
