My teapot topiary

This has taken me six years to get to this point. It's boxwood and has no wire frame except for the handle, where I needed one wire to assist in creating the "hole" in the handle. These photos were taken in early Spring of this year.

A teacup with saucer topiary will join it eventually. I planted a small boxwood for the foundation last fall, but it already had the hint of a pyramid shape forming so now I hate to trim it out. I might end up planting another to shape the teacup/saucer. Why do I keep making more work for myself?
