Easter is just around the corner and blumeboxes make for a great DIY Easter basket project for all ages.

Shown here is a 6″ eucalyptus blue adorned with fake grass blades and PEEPS. To add the handle we poke two holes on opposite sides of one another and laced a ribbon through it. Tie of each end with a knot and you have yourself your very own Easter basket!

Start new, creative traditions this Easter! Use a blumebox cube in place of a traditional basket, and have fun creating a festive design!

For these, we started with lime green and white 4” cubes, then decorated the outside with Easter grass, paper cut-outs, craft-store chicks and jelly candies. The inside of the cube was just the right size for a variety of candies and prize-filled eggs. When the holiday is over, we can put them away in the box of Easter decorations for use year after year!
