Making a Witch's Broom

Today I decided to make a full sized witch's broom. For the broom section I used two kinds of eucalypus branches, olive branches, and creosote branches. I believe the handle section came from a fruitless mulberry tree Guy brought home for firewood.  After I got it all tied together I hung it in a shed to dry over time. This is my first one so I have no idea how long the drying will take, especially since it is still in the 30's at night. Snow and rain are in the forecast for tonight.
