We are all about bringing some cheer to those around us – especially this year. We are dedicated to bringing back May Basket Day and have pulled together a few great resources. May Day doesn’t have to be anything elaborate or require more than what you may have around the house.

May Day Mason Jar Gift & Printable Tags

If you are game to join us on our campaign to bring back May Day, this is a great resource on how to give sweet flowers “pre-planted” so they last longer than cut flowers. There are even some cute printable tags too!

Upcycled Tin Can May Day Basket

Need a way to get some kiddos involved in May Day? This is an easy, fun afternoon craft idea to reuse some tin cans and gift flowers in them. This is a simple, engaging way to divert some waste into something beautiful.

Easy Mason Jar Flower Arrangements with Live Plants

Before the canning season is upon us, here is another idea on using jars to give a home to live plants. Besides a great use for May Day, there are some wonderful ideas on how to make great centerpieces for your home. 

Make An Adorable Herb Garden With Old Glass Jar

You can gift sweet flowers on May Day, but what about making an actual tiny garden? If you have a cook (or aspiring one) in your life, gifting them with a mini-herb garden for May Day would be quite a treat.

Plant Succulents in Recycled Glass Jars

May Day doesn’t have to be just flowers either. For those that need a more “self-sufficient” plant gift, why not try a succulent? Small glass jars, like Yoplait’s Oui’s nifty yogurt ones, are just the right size for these adorable little guys.

Between what you have at the house and what we have at our greenhouse, we could create each of these ideas for an epic May Day!
