On the eve of The Baby Shower, I picked up three of these at Lowes for $3.33 each. They're called Green Velvet Boxwoods and by the tag's account they are certainly outdoor plants. Nevertheless, I planted them in pots and put them in my sun window. They're supposed to get quite large - 3'x5', so either they'll eventually start to fail or I'll plant them outside. But whatever I do, for the price of a small bouquet of flowers, I've had three lovely green plants to enjoy for a whole month. They still seem to be doing alright, so...
This weekend I'm using them as my centerpieces for our Easter celebration table.
I just threw all this on this morning, so I'll probably do some tweaking before Sunday.
But the basics are there - my simple china from BB&B, glassware from both of our grandmothers...
Silver from my other grandma and wrinkled linen, of course. Yes, it will be some extra work to hand-wash all this for 12, but if it's not worth it on Easter then when is it?
All set to celebrate! Hope you have a lovely Easter.
