Celebrate the Easter Season with a Colorful, Homemade Gift Basket

The spring and Easter seasons are a time to celebrate renewal, as the sun emerges from the clouds and shines brightly, and little buds on the trees begin to develop into leaves. The vibrant hues of spring bring about happiness and richness of life. When creating a gift basket, extra care should be taken to take the vibrancies of all that is associated with spring and Easter, and add those little touches when you make that special basket. The Lucky Clover Trading Company provides you with baskets in an array of spring colors that will be sure to bring a smile to that person’s face.

Bamboo Wood chip Swing Handle

The colors of spring come alive with these baskets. Made out of a combination of bamboo and wood chip materials, the strong handle and the sturdy base make it a great basket for Easter egg hunting. Fill the bottom of this basket with pastel colored paper or cellophane fill and hand out to all of the little ones. There are three sizes (small, medium, and large) of this basket that is great for kids as little as a year old and up, and is available in a pastel green, pastel pink, and a pastel yellow. The body of the basket is woven in rope to add texture. The top and bottom rim of the basket are paintable. Use crafting paint to add eggs and flowers, as well as paint the name of the little one that will receive the basket.

Spring Oval and Round Baskets – Set of 3

Baskets do not get more colorful than this set of three spring baskets in either an oval or round shape. Made out of bamboo, these baskets are dyed using various vegetable dyes. Bright colors of pink, green, yellow and purple stand out. This basket can be used for kids when they hunt for Easter Eggs, but can also be used as a gift basket. Fill the bottom of the basket with green fill (to represent grass), and add goodies associated with the Easter holiday:

·         Colorful stuffed animals
·         Chocolate bunnies
·         Candy in the shapes of eggs, bunnies, ducks
·         Crayons
·         Stylish bracelets
·         Toy cars

After assembling the gift basket, wrap the entire basket in clear or colored cellophane and wrap with white ribbon.

Gift Box with Lid – Green Stripes, Pink Stripes

These are very sturdy boxes that make gift giving fun this Easter. The matching lid adds a finished look. One great gift idea is to place fresh baked goodies such as muffins and cookies. Place wax paper or colorful tissue at the bottom, as it adds a nice presentation. The lid keeps the baked goods fresh. Even adding a ribbon or bow, adds a festive look to the gift box. Another gift idea is to present homemade chocolate and candy in these gift boxes. The best thing about these gift boxes is that they serve more than one purpose to anyone that gets their hands on them. Other ideas include: jewelry storage, pen and paper storage, office supplies storage, etc.
