Reader meleven asked us to help her find some shallow trays for possible wheatgrass placecard holders or centerpieces. My little spidey legs did some crawling all over the web and found these affordable options:
First, some grass.
lawn grass 10″ sq $7.99
patch grass 10″ sq $7.99
onion grass $6.99
moss sheets 14″ sq $6.55
Then, some possible container options.
I took a look around my house after all this research and I’ve decided Green Lucy Balls definitely need to come and stay awhile!
ooh, i like those square boxes. good to fill with sand too and have escort cards standing up.
this is awesome. this is exactly the color and look i was looking for!
Muchas Grass-ias! LOL, love it! That just made it all worthwhile. Enjoy people!
How ’bout putting the grass in a jelly roll pan? You could use it later as a…er, jelly roll pan.
omgosh, i’m so glad you found these items. I’ve been searching for long narrow glass holders for a long long time. And once those cube holders are back in stock, I can complete my centerpiece decor.

About Me: My favorite parts of wedding planning are DIY projects and figuring out ways to incorporate old traditions into a modern affair.
Wow!!! Thank you so very much! I am thrilled with those results, I hope they help other crafty bees, too. Those prices are reasonable, and with my coupon hunting skills I could likely get an additional discount. This is a project that has been on my mind for quite some time, so thanks for the momentum and resources. Or, should I say “Muchas Grass-ias”?
