Easter Preparations.. Part 1


Just thought i'd share these cute Easter Baskets that I made for our children and the kids who are coming to our family Easter BBQ. Instead of buying individual presents/chocolates etc for each of the nephews and neices we have decided that each family coming would buy eggs toward the egg hunt and the kids would get whatever they collect (of course we'd even it out so the big kids didn't have all the fun/chocolate!) I hope the idea works well..

I bought the baskets for $2.50 each from the $2 shop and lined it with either pink or blue tissues depending upon if the basket was for a boy/girl. I then added a name tag to the front (the cute felt bunny's are actually on mini pegs.. these to were from a $2 shop! So cute..) Throw in a set of bunny ears (also $2!) and a tube of Easter Bubbles and the kids are all set to do some serious egg hunting!!

I thought this was an inexpensive way to brighten up the BBQ and give the kids a basket they can not only use on the day but perhaps put out for the Easter Bunny too!
