Grass candles are a simplistic way to add color and variety to your home during the Easter holiday.  In order to create these decorative candles you would first need to purchase light-colored pillars, nonflammable all-purpose glue stick, and blades of wheat grass or grass from outside of your home whichever works best for you.  Take the glue and paste each blade of grass to the candle making sure to fold the bottom of the blades underneath the bottom of the candle.  (For the best natural look, glue the blades at varying lengths and turning at different directions imitating nature’s pattern).

Egg planters, these miniature floral arrangements are great for little pops of color and freshness around the table.  First, begin with cracking the egg at the top and carefully cleaning it out with water.  After rinsing out the egg shell then fill the bottom layer with water and a scoop of dirt then take small cuts of your favorite flowers and place them within the egg (while doing this process set the egg shells in the carton for stability).  When everything has been set in place if you have small egg shaped dishes to put the eggs in that would be fantastic and you could place the planters in them if not then just leave the arrangements in the carton and place them wherever you would like.
