I took apart a silk flower that had small petaled flowers and just pulled of a little sprig and wound it around the basket handle. I had some tiny little paper flowers that were on a wire that I picked up at a garage sale a while back and wound that around the wire as well. You can improvise with any tiny flower sprig.
I used a glue gun to attach some tissue paper garland around the tops of each peat pot. There are several sellers on Etsy that carry this. I did this to all of them, even the ones with no handle.
I got some paper Easter grass and stuffed the cups and then used little fuzzy Peeps I got at the 99 Cent store and some pastel glittered eggs I picked up at the craft store. Easter stuff is already 40 percent off.
The above picture is a tall lantern for candles. I put my cupcake stand inside of it for a taller display. I covered the bottom of the lantern with some moss to give it a natural look and also to give those little Peeps a soft place to nest.
I also arranged it on a two-tiered stand for a little different look. I like both ways. These were so much fun. I might use them for place card cups at Easter and put some jelly beans in them for a treat. Thanks for dropping by. The Peeps and I loved having you.
How cute.I have to try something from the graphic fairy.We are having some issues with our printer...bad ink.As soon as that is gone I will give it a try.Whom ever is going to receive those baskets they are very lucky.
