So, I probably shouldn't be allowed into Michaels within several weeks of any holiday. Too temping! I have no impulse control when it comes to all the goodies that accompany most holidays. Luckily, I have several girls in my life that definitely need Easter baskets. :)
This tiny bird is sitting on a cute paper cupcake that opens up ~ leaving a perfect amount of room for jelly beans! +Yellow fluff-chicks always remind me of these books, which are so clever & hilarious.
After more than an hour of blissed-out gathering at Michaels, I called the trip successful and came home to assemble all the treasures. But ~ see that kind of blank space in the middle of the basket…?
I forgot the chocolate bunnies! What's an Easter basket without a chocolate bunny?! One more shopping trip to rectify that & I can wrap the baskets up to admire for awhile before they're delivered. It's been a lot of giddy, hand-clapping fun for me. I'm nerdy like that. 🙂
Lastly, speaking of bunnies…please take a moment to check out these handmade beauties by Black Crow Primitives on Etsy. I ordered this one for my daughter and couldn't wait for Easter, so gave it to her last week! They're really well made. Wonderful work, and I think very under-priced at about $30 each. But at that price the artist is selling them, so maybe it's better to keep them affordable and have them find homes. We're happy to have one in our home! ♥
