You will need a flat basket and a 'spade' oasis holder with oasis cut to fit. Tape the oasis to the spade before beginning.
Place the stem of a large leather leaf into the top of the oasis so it lies flat to one side of the basket.
Then insert Iris. Cut the Iris so they are 3 different lengths and insert in a line in the middle of the oasis.
Place 2 carnations on each side of the Iris.
Insert daffodils into each side of the oasis so that all the flowers flow in one direction. Don't forget if your daffodil stems need reinforced, just insert a little twig into the stem.
Insert Arum leaves into the sides of the oasis and make sure no oasis is showing.
Place three Bergenia leaves at the bottom of the oasis but have is facing the opposite direction of the flowers.
Insert stems into the oasis and behind the Bergenia leaves so they stick up as above. Insert a bow just infront of the Bergenia leaves and your Easter basket is complete. It's now ready and easy to carry to give to a friend or relative that you visit over the holiday season.
