Dollar Tree Easter Baskets

Hi there!

How about a cute little Easter basket to try!

These little pots I found at the Dollar Tree.

At my Dollar tree they come in green or creme.

They come in a pack of 4 for $1 so an easy 25 cents each.

These would be so cute to put at everyone's place 

at the Easter table or to give to friends or at work.

The cost to make them is minimal.

Look at the sweet design along the side of the little 

buckets (baskets)  No need to add anymore to the 

baskets with those cute details on them.

So what you will need to make these are as follows;

little baskets

twigs

candy for inside the baskets

chocolate bunny

The baskets are again from Dollar Tree

The twigs I got from outside in the yard, 

while your twigs are still green, you can bend and

shape them so they won't break.  So don't choose

twigs that have already started to dry out or they will break.

The Chocolate bunnies are by Russell Stover and can be found

at our local store Bartell's, for the rest of the nation be sure and check to see where they carry Russell Stover chocolates.   These bunnies

are milk chocolate and hollow, about 4 1/2" high and cost .50 cents

Then just choose any other type of Easter candy you like.

I have jelly beans and dove eggs in mine. 

You can see in the picture how fresh the twig is with

the greens just starting to come in.  In a week or so

it will become drier. 

This is what the buckets look like and the bunny.

Start by hot gluing in the twig on each side of the 

basket.  Then add any type of Easter grass you'd like.

I have the kraft colored brown one so I used that. 

All three of these things can be bought at the Dollar Tree,

once your grass and twig is in place then start filling your basket with 

candy. 

That's all there is to it!

These are very affordable to be used for Easter dinner or gifting.

I love to bring easy and affordable ideas!
