That's what I was going to suggest - getting a
large 'silk' holly garland and peeling off the
leaves. They usually come off very easily. This
is how we did the angel wings from one of our
painting reproductions (fantasy) - got every bit
of silk greenery from the local craft store that
had the right shape leaves, and peeled them
off. We lucked out - the store had all silk
flowers/greens at 50% off that day only.

Ouch! That is pricey. You couldn't pull leaves off bunches for a lot
cheaper? And are you sewing them all on, as opposed to gluing?
