Easter Flower Centrepiece

March 27, 2014 By A Spoonful of Sugar - Leave a Comment

Easter Flower Centrepiece 1

Now the weather is finally cooling down, we have been buying a few plants for our garden. When I was at the garden centre last week, I spotted some little pots of colourful flowers for under $2.00. I thought they would make a sweet Easter gift or Easter Table Centrepiece.

Materials

I planted the pot of colour in a white ceramic flower pot from Ikea. (Oops – should have washed the pot before I took the photo).

Bunny

Using a metal skewer, I made a small hole in the bottom of a Chocolate Bunny. Then I carefully inserted a bamboo skewer, and positioned the bunny in the pot.

Easter Centrepiece

Using a pretty polaroid style tag from Typo, I added an embossed Easter greeting and taped it to a bamboo skewer and added that to the pot.

Easter Centrepiece 1

This was a quick and easy  project and would make a pretty Easter gift or Easter flower centrepiece. Who doesn’t like flowers for Easter?
