DIY Alternative Easter Baskets, Eggs & Crafts
Some families like to have firm traditions and never deviate from them, like their Easter baskets or eggs. Growing up in my family we had the same baskets from the time we were born until we left the house. I would say stopped hunting for them, but my mom would still make us a basket regardless if we still hunted it down. The only way you graduated to a nicer, bigger basket (not that it ever held any extra) is when an older sibling left the nest and you were next in line to inherit! LOL!
I thought it might be fun today to investigate some alternatives to traditional Easter baskets and eggs. I thought it might be interesting to dye eggs with kool-aid like Michelle did over on her Simplify, Live, Love blog and a whole lot more.
Before we get to the real meat of this article I thought I’d share this German cartoon with you that “explains” how their German Easter Bunnies actually get their eggs that they decorate:
Okay, so now that you know how they get them you can find ideas to decorate them from Michelle’s blog, or our in-depth articles covering decorating Easter eggs here and here.
But if what you are looking for ideas for alternative Easter baskets and then fun crafts and games to play once the eggs are colored and the baskets are found we have lots of those for you too:
We all have our stereotypical ideas of what constitutes an Easter basket. Today we’re looking at some alternatives that stretch your imagination.
So what are YOUR Easter traditions? Are they the same ones you had as a child? We have an Easter egg hunt for our grandkids, something my parents never did but oh so much fun! How about you? What will you do next weekend?
