Easter Gifts

Easter is almost here. Finding that perfect hosts gift can be tricky. We've got you covered. There are so many creative ideas out there. Some may be too expensive or some could be beyond your creative comfort zone. I am going to give you some ideas that are easy, affordable, and adorable. Your hosts will already have their table set with decorations, flowers, and bunny napkin holders. The goal for a hosts gift is to give them something they will want to use after everyone has left. Something for them personally. Fresh cut flowers are always a nice gesture but get creative with them. Tulips and lilies are beautiful and I always want to give them as a gift because I am a firm believer that you should have fresh flowers in your home year round. The trick is not making the flowers the gift. Make what you give the flowers in the gift. That way they can use it over and over. Give something different and unique. Everyone has a glass vase. One idea is giving your flowers in a moss purse or moss cowboy boots, yes cowboy boots. You will have to find some sort of vase or container that fits in the purse etc but once you do that it is so easy and fun.
Another idea is a hanging terrarium. You are seeing these all over pinterest and for good reason. They are adorable. You can make them with dirt, a little moss, and small houseplants or succulents. You can find the empty terrariums at floral shops or craft stores.  I personally buy them already made. I find by the time I get all the materials it is cheaper to buy it already made unless you are planning on making a bunch of them. We have the most adorable ones in our garden center right now.

The anticipation of spring & summer makes plants and fresh flowers so popular at Easter but don't forget about yard deco. A birdhouse, yard stake, solar lights, or chimes can spur that spring excitement just as much as plants and will be enjoyed all season! 


Whatever the gift have fun with it and don't forget to get yourself a little something in the process :) Oh, everything above we have in our Garden Center, come immerse yourself in spring!
