Easy Easter Basket Tutorials.

I've made a couple of my own mini Easter baskets over the years (you'll find them below) and one of my favourite things about making them yourself is that you can totally personalise them to the people you're giving them to.

You can create your own Easter basket using materials you already have at home, like paper cups, scrapbook paper, or even upcycle an old Mason jar. Or, if you're feeling extra crafty, why not try your hand at sewing a fabric basket, crocheting a basket from scratch or crafting a paper basket using printable templates?

Make them using their favourite colour, decorate them with embellishments or stickers of things they love and fill them with specially chosen Easter eggs, sweet treats like jelly beans or even plastic eggs filled with small gifts.

I've rounded up over 20 of the best Easter basket ideas I could find. My personal favourites (apart from my own, obviously) have got to the adorable no-sew felt Easter bunny and pretty wicker basket decorated with faux grass and flowers.

I also love the upcycled brown paper bags that have been cut up into long strips and woven into a cute Easter basket. It's such a clever way to use something that would otherwise be thrown away.
