Tulips are so beautiful. They are like a small package that grows each Sprig season and shows all their lovely colors. Walking past a group of tulips or smelling them will put a smile on your face. Having said that, tulips make for great gifts, especially for the Easter season. Even though roses are something nice to give on any give day, receiving some tulips  will put a smile on anyone's face, especially your  Mom, sister, girlfriend or wife's face. You can not go wrong when giving a gift that will not have to be returned. A vase of cut tulips will look so beautiful on a dining room table, coffee table, bedside table or windowsill.  

Did you know making tulip crafts with kids can be fun? Well they can and couple of project ideas they can do with you. Here is one of the Tulip Time projects. This is easy and can be put together in no time.

The materials needed for this delicious project are: Cut Tulips, Jelly Bean Candy, 2 Glass Vases (Small/Large). Now all you do is place the small vase into the large vase. arrange the jelly beans in between the two vases, pour water into the small vase and insert as many Tulips are you like (one color or multi colors) for a lovely Easter/Spring gift.

The materials needed for this adorable project are: Cut Tulips, Decorative Easter Egg Chinese 'To Go' Box and Glass Jar. Now all you have to do is place the glass jar in the middle of the decorative box, fill the glass jar with water and insert the cut tulips. 

These projects are easy, simple and delightful to look at and receive. 

Nothing Helps Your Flowers and Garden Grow More Than Expand 'n Gro

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Scotts® for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

If you have ever wondered how to get your flowers and vegetable garden to become bright and vibrant, the only soil you need is Expand ‘n Gro™ by Scotts. This is something everyone who loves planting flowers and growing their vegetable garden in the Spring and Summer months needs to use. If you have been searching and searching for something that would make your flowers and vegetable garden grow, all you need is a planting soil that is made up of all natural Coir Coconut. This Coir is found in such places as Mexico, Sri Lanka, India, Dominican Republic and Vietnam. Just as coconut meat and juice is good for the human body, so to is it good from growing flowers and vegetables.

 

The Expand 'n Gro planting soil is far better than the native soil in your front or backyard. Plus, this concentrated planting mix will expand up to 3x in water. If feeding your plants new soil every month is something you frown upon, this planting soil lasts for up to 6 months and this planting soil is made from all natural fibers and holds up to 50% more water.  

This planting soil is amazing because I am not a fan of replacing old soil for new or having to re mix the native soil with this type of soil over and over again. I like is when things, especially planting gardens, are kept simple. This is one product that does what it says and says what it does. If I like this planing soil, I know you will too. So go look for this at your local lawn and garden retailer. Now, this soil is available in Texas, Midwest and Northeast right now.

Tilling the soil is important to mix in this new planting soil, so make sure it is mixed in well with your native soil. When you do this, it will make your garden healthier and reduce the bulk density. This makes the soil up to 40% lighter, while creating up to 90% more air space. Remember, the Expand 'n Gro planting soil can be used in planting pots or in the ground.
