Festive Poinsettia Basket

'Strawberries and Cream' poinsettias are a delightful change from the traditional red. Slip potted poinsettias into a low basket and fill it with whatever you have on hand. I used Leyland cypress stems (clipped from my garden), pinecones glued to floral picks, hypericum berries, copper colored ornaments and gold ribbon. The hypericum berries will last longer if you slide them into water-filled floral vases, which can be camouflaged among the leaves.
