Make your own Easter basket this, simple 2-step tutorial using dollar store supplies

It’s no secret that I am obsessed with Dollar Tree and Target’s Dollar Spot. Seriously, I think I visit one or both weekly. Have you see the cute Spring decor out at Target yet?

These galvanized buckets caught my eye a few weeks ago. And even though I didn’t have a clue as to what I was going to do with them, a couple came home with me anyway, as well as some cute felt bunnies.

Supplies

The first step is to tie the raffia ribbon around the top of the bucket. I tied several pieces to give it a full look. Use dabs of hot glue to keep the raffia in place.

Next, use the hot glue to place a felt bunny silhouette in the center where the raffia was tied.

Last, load it up with Easter grass or another filler and stick in your favorite candies and goodies.

  1. Such a neat looking basket. I probably would not have thought about adding a little felt bunny to it – it is so creative. I have a couple of those little buckets and I am just using them as is. Thanks for sharing your creativity with us!!!

  2. I love the idea of the galvanized bucket in place of the traditional woven one. I know I would definitely use it for so many other things.

  3. I love that bucket! Not gonna lie, it could be my Easter basket without any additional decor but you’ve definitely made it a beautiful and multi-functional piece!
