Stuffed Bunnies and Chicks
Store bought stuffed animals are cuddly, but not quite as endearing as handmade ones.Kids adore these plushy toys, and they are great for adding life to an Easter basket otherwise crammed with not so healthy candy.
For this holiday, bunnies and chicks are the best animals to stuff. Your favorite craft or sewing supply store will have a host of patterns and fabrics, which you can use to create these delightful toys.
Think outside the box, and don’t make all your bunnies white or gray and chicks yellow. Have fun with color, creating pink bunnies and green chicks, using pretty satin ribbons tied around the necks for extra detail!
Decorative Easter Baskets
What is Easter without pretty baskets? They’re used for egg hunts, morning surprises left by the Easter Bunny, and for Easter and springtime decorations throughout the house.Plus, when the holiday is over, they are great for storing a variety of items, especially your craft supplies!
Use pretty pastel printed fabrics to line the baskets. You can even include some padded lining if you expect your basket to carry something fragile.
The fabric can be draped over the edges of the basket to create a border effect. Then, add ribbons to the basket handle. With the right basket, ribbon can be woven between the wickerwork, adding a lovely and delicate touch.
Beaded Jewelry
There’s nothing like a handmade beaded jewelry to liven up an Easter outfit. These are great gifts for people who have birthdays just before the Easter holiday or for folks you’ll be see in the morning hours, so that they can wear these jewels on Easter day.Beads in traditional pastel Easter colors will last all through spring, while bunny, egg, and chick-shaped beads are especially for the day itself!
Dainty earrings or long dangling necklaces are perfect for this time of year, and if jewelry doesn’t fit the bill, make a key chain or cell phone charm instead.
