Before you stock up on the traditional chocolate bunnies, dyed eggs, and pretty flowers for your Easter basket this year, consider adding a creative twist. While there’s nothing wrong with the classics, this approach allows for everyone to unleash their creativity – and you won’t have to share your treats or break the bank on eggs.
Putting together an Easter craft basket is a simple and fun task, suitable for both beginners and seasoned crafters. This gift is all about fun and creativity, with no unnecessary filler. Here are some ideas for what you can include.
In our craft-centric baskets, we’re including paintbrushes in a spring-themed mug, a tablecloth for workspace protection, plenty of paints, decorative candles, and, of course, Easter candy.
However, you’re not limited to that list. The beauty of a craft basket is that you can tailor it to suit any crafter and personalize it as much as you desire.
For a crocheter, consider adding hooks, crochet pins, yarn, and a crochet ring. A painting enthusiast might appreciate a set of miniature canvases along with paints, brushes, ink, and markers. Kids’ baskets can feature a mix of crafting activities and accessories like stamps, stickers, non-toxic paint palettes, and painter’s aprons.
Regardless of the crafting interest, there’s a basket waiting to be created. Here are some creative variations you can explore:
– Journaling supplies
– Stationery
– Sewing accessories
– Scrapbooking essentials
– Collaging materials
– Color-by-number kits
You can also plan craft-based activities around the items in your basket, such as painting Easter eggs, embroidering a spring-themed hoop, or sketching outdoors as a group activity to celebrate with friends and family.
As one Instagram comment perfectly sums it up, “My kind of Easter basket.”
