Tuesday Tip

Unfortunately, I don't have any Crocus popping up from the ground. However, I do enjoy seeing my neighbor's from my laundry room window. And even though my laundry room is attractive, I don't care to spend extra time in it regardless of the view! So this past Sunday when I was at TJ's, I went a little nuts. Each pot of purple Crocus was only $2.49!!!  If you don't have a Trader Joe's near you, check your local grocer or nursery.



Some for the kitchen counter....



And some for the table! To make a super easy Spring/Easter centerpiece remove the Crocus from their plastic pots and place them in a basket with a liner, then just add:

Your favorite filler...



And a few friends....


Don't forget to water!



Enjoy!

  1. Oh my goodness, how cute is this? What an adorable basket arrangement! If you were to buy this at a florist, they'd probably charge a fortune for it. This is quite lovely indeed! Thanks for sharing.

  10. Some"bunny" is really good at putting together Easter baskets. This is DARLING! I love bunnies...so love them poking out of the crocus. And, I'm having a spring fling with purple. Just can't get enough of it!
