DIY mini basket place settings for Easter
It’s so easy squeazy.
Materials:
- Mini baskets
- Moss
- Robin’s egg candy
- Paper
- Glue gun
I bought these mini baskets here and filled them with a bit of moss and robin’s egg peanut butter M&Ms. You might be tempted to buy a slew of other robin’s egg candies, but I bought them all to see which was prettiest and tastiest and these are them. Trust me. I also ate all the bags to find out, so I’m obviously I’m a person with sound judgment.
Instructions:
- Fill your baskets with moss and robin’s egg candies. You can add other goodies as well, depending on how big your baskets are!
- Cut out mini banners
- Write the names of your friends/family/guests on the mini banners
- Use the glue gun to stick the banners to the mini basket handles
I created the banners out of leftover wallpaper (from a project I did for Laura Ashley) and curled them so that they twisted a bit. I wrote each name, glue gunned them to the basket, and BOOM!
