Bulbs and Wheat Grass - Nothing says springtime like the pastels popping up from the ground as soon as the earth is warm. Tulips, hyacinths and daffodils are perfect choices for decorating your Easter table, especially since they are readily available at garden centers and supermarkets at this time of the year. Fill a 6-inch terra cotta pot with soil, and plant a spring bulb in the center of the pot. Next, plant wheat grass tightly around the bulb. Wheat grass is often available at garden centers, pet supply stores, or you could grow your own from seeds. Finally, complete the look by wrapping a piece of brightly colored sinamay mesh ribbon around the top of the pot and tying a bow. Place several of these arrangements down the center of your table. For a dramatic look, go with one color and variety of bulb; for a more light-hearted expression of spring, vary the bulbs and colors.
