Clay Pot Resurrection Garden

Take a clay saucer and pot of desired size.
 
 
Bury the pot in dirt and add some pebbles and a large rock in the front.

 
Top with grass seed, a little more dirt and water, water, water.

 
Send kids on a stick hunt in the yard to make your crosses and what you've created is a beautiful Resurrection Garden.

 
If planted at the right time, grass should be growing by Easter morning.
 
We did not plant ours at the right time. 
 
 
Easter morning our garden still looked a little dead. 
 
However, just given a few extra days, it was full of life and the promise of new life, just as Easter is meant to be.

 
I saw this craft on Pinterest last year but clay saucers or pots were not in stores at that time.  I kept the idea in the back of my head so that when they were all I had to do was pick up my desired sizes and tuck them away in my Easter totes and -voila - everything was ready to go for this Easter.
