A Bluegrass Easter Basket

Over the weekend I came across a delightful, earthy & organic tutorial for DIY Eggshell Planters.


As soon as we finished breakfast (we had eggs) I bid farewell to my family and headed out to the garden with my earbuds & eggshells to share my version of this lovely tutorial with you!


I started by gathering my supplies.
A little garden soil and moss and new little sprigs of this & that to fill each eggshell and create a natural Easter Egg Garden.


I also gathered blossoms.


Both pink and white for just a little color.


The delicate blossoms were a bit too large for the individual shells so instead, the varieties of moss became my focus.


I think it beautifully compliments my grandmothers Dresden,


and allows the eggs to nestle together nicely.


So a Kentucky Bluegrass Easter Basket it is.



My helper is waiting for the Kentucky Bluegrass Easter Bunny!



I hope you’re enjoying all the blessings of this season.
