Clover and Eggs Basket

This fanciful green meadow vignette seems a fitting home for a chocolate bunny. His eyes (dabs of tinted royal icing) and bow-tie (ribbon with a glued-on rosette) match his surroundings. To assemble, set a plastic liner inside a vintage green basket, add some soil, and then plant a bed of clover. If you can't find a green basket, give a plain one a color wash using the technique described for the blue display. For a basket that's deeper than about six inches, fill the bottom with crumpled-up kraft paper before putting in the plastic liner. We nestled a collection of green-dyed blown-out eggs from quails, turkeys, and chukars (a type of partridge) among the plants (for dyeing how-to, click here). Green picot-edged silk-ribbon bows drape down the basket's sides.
