SO-PRETTY PANSY BOX

Dressing up a porch or patio side table is as easy as popping a few flowering plants into a pretty patterned gift box. To do:

Line a gift box with cling wrap or a cut-tofit piece of a trash bag. Add soil to box, remove two to three pansy plants from their plastic tray or pots and nestle into the soil. Set box in full sun to part shade and keep soil moist. Tip: To decorate a plain box, brush on decoupage paste, then smooth on cut-to-fit gift wrap; let dry.
