Step 1
Select healthy, disease-free flowering plants that bloom in the spring. Some suggestions are pansy, viola, calendula and stock.
-
Step 2
Plant a large container (10 to 14 inches in diameter) with the colorful annuals (see "How to Plant in a Container").
-
Step 3
Place the container outside, near the entry to your home.
-
Step 4
Water the newly planted container.
-
Step 5
Surround the edge of the pot with plastic Easter basket grass. Allow the grass to spill over the rim.
-
Step 6
Place plastic Easter eggs between the flowers. Prop up the eggs with more plastic grass to keep them from getting lost in the foliage.
-
Step 7
Pierce a plastic foam egg with the end of a bamboo stake. Repeat with at least three other eggs and stakes.
-
Step 8
Tie ribbon streamers onto the bamboo stakes just under the foam eggs. The ribbons should be long enough to trail down the sides of the pot. Use several colors of ribbon.
-
Step 9
Place the prepared bamboo stakes attractively among the plants in the potting soil.
