Materials and Supplies Needed for a Miniature Easter Display Tree:

  • *Small flower container
  • **Wire # 18 gauge wrapped wire (white, pale green or brown) 7, 9. or 11 pieces. 18 inches long. Thicker gauge wire may be needed if your miniature collectibles are heavy.
  • Florist’s tape to match the wire color.
  • Florist’s dry arrangement foam sized to fit your container.

*The container in the photo is 2 1/2 inches (6 cm.) high and 4 ½ inches from the handle to the spout. Choose one that suits your decor, and look for one with a base color that matches your color scheme.

**Iif you can’t find wrapped wire you can wrap painted wire with the florist’s tape. Wrapped wire will keep the ornaments from slipping.
