I’m REALLY NOT any good at spatial relationships where gifts and the would be containers. I ended up making Christmas stockings larger than the 5 year old.

What a cute way to create an Easter gift especially for older children. These would be great for prizes in an Easter Egg hunt as well. 🙂

Very cute ideas. Last year for my 15 year old daughters easter basket I used a makeup bag as my easter basket and filled it with all the girly stuff she loves. Provided much needed storage space for make up and I didn’t have to end up tossing out a basket:)!!!
Sharon says
Great idea! Thanks Debi!
Noreen says

I really love the basket made from candy! I think I will use the idea for preparing a basket for my son…Thank you.

I love that one too! And I know my kids would be torn between wanting to tear in and eat the candy- and wanting to keep “the basket” intact!
