My little egg hunters are going to need baskets for their loot!

I made some Burlap Bunny Bags for them several weeks ago

These baskets can be made in 1-2-3 easy steps~

  1. those are some cuties.. !

  2. The polka dot letters are my favorite part!

  3. Kathleen says:

    Those are adorable! We have 15 little ones at our Easter celebration, so we don’t get fancy with the containers. :). I fill 150 eggs for the hunt. Takes me hours to fill, and minutes for them to find them all!

  4. My babies are all grown up and moved out but after seeing those adorable Easter Baskets they just might get a delivery from their “mommy”…LOL

    Those are the cutest things ever!

  5. So adorable. I love to see children scamper around the yard filling their baskets with eggs. I don’t know who enjoys it the most the children or me.

    I love the painted letters you added to the baskets. You have some very lucky grandchildren! The burlap bunny bags are perfect, too. The tea towel inside each basket is a wonderful touch – no mess inside with grass spilling out onto your floors. 🙂 Have fun!
