I purchased this at ikea also, it was in the same area as the jars I bought.   Mix the Epsom salt and a small amount of glass together. If you don't like the recycled glass you could use glitter.

I also got this greenery at Michael's.   I cut only the Fir part from this piece about 2 inched from the tops, and used the rest in a floral arrangement since it looked like I hasn't even touched it.
