Spring Tabletop Garden

This has been the coldest, snowiest winter I can remember here in coastal Virginia. And to make it worse our weather has been in perpetual tease mode. One day it is sunny and 70, the next it drops to below freezing and snow! This bi-polar, erratic behavior is about to make all of us jump ship and head to the Caribbean like I did last year! I need SPRING! So off to the grocery store I went. Yep, I said the grocery store. I love my Harris Teeter and Food Lion for fresh flowers. They never fail me for affordable fresh flowers. Let’s Bring on Spring into our homes with a Fresh Spring Tabletop Garden! (This could make a perfect Easter Centerpiece too!)

    Beautiful! What a great idea, to leave the potted plants in their pots and disguise with sheet moss. Who knew? And bonus: exchange out spent plants easily! Thanks for sharing.

    This is beautiful! Don’t think I could make it that cheap tho. There is no pot of flowers in grocery stores in my area for under $6.99.

      Thank you Ann! That’s a bummer! I noticed that Wal-Mart had many tulips and flowering bulbs in their garden center for only a few dollars each, and Home Depot is starting to get them in also, but they just weren’t blooming yet. That could be an option too.

    super cute tabletop garden. I’m in need of some fresh flowers and this centerpiece is perfect!

    What a terrific and simple idea! I always try to have fresh flowers on my kitchen table, and this is such difference way to do that. I could see how this could be something that can be done year round. A few small annual flowers for summer … small pot of mums and tiny pumpkins for fall … Christmas I’ll have to think about. Thanks so much.

    Hi. I love your Spring Tabletop Garden. I am trying to make my own. I am having difficulty finding a similar basket could you please tell me where you found yours? Thanks.

    • Kim Wilson says

      March 31, 2014 at 11:40 am

      Hi Heather! Thanks so much! I found that basket at TJMAXX/Homegoods. Any type of shallow basket will work. 😉

    Did you start the bulbs out and if so how long did it take them to bloom. I have some and want to do it for Easter.

      Hi Diane! This blog post is actually in a slide show format, showing each step how to make the spring tabletop garden. If you click the arrow buttons at the top of the post you can see everything. But to answer your question, They are all small pots of tulips, bought already blooming from the store and grouped together. (super easy and fast!)
