Today is a beautiful spring day, so I hung my plastic eggs from the bare branches of my Star Magnolia, and took a basket that farmers use filled it to nearly the top with a plastic bag full of empty soda cans and one large styrafoam ball, used four bags of green easter grass on top of that. I have large plastic eggs about one foot long, and many smalller ones six inches long. Made holes in the eggs with a ice pick, some on the ends and sides. Bought thin dowel sticks at Lowes, inserted into eggs and secured them into the balls to hold them in place. To keep the basket from blowing over I take wire clothes hangers, I cut below the hook one both sides, then in the center of the straight you should now have two U shaped wires, this I insert one end in the basketand then into the lawn to keep it in place. I sat it under my tree with one of those nearly lifesize rabbits sitting next to it. And, I would like to send pictures but I still don't know how to do it!!!!!!!

msmona, I would love to see a picture of this.  I bet it is very pretty. 
 
We still have lots of snow here.  Just last week it snowed for about 3 days and nights straight, and hasn't warmed up enough to melt it.  soon  I'm hoping though.  I'm pretty darn tired of this cold here.
