Craft Roundup: Getting in Gear for Easter

With Easter just a week and a half away from today, there’s still plenty of time left to make a flight of handmade gifts to share with your children or friends, items to decorate with – or simply new ideas for sprucing up your egg decorating approaches. The blogosphere is bursting with tons of fun, spring-approved ideas right now. Let this week’s Make It be just the beginning of your inspiration for you and your family.

Rainbow Slime Recipe

Looking for a non-candy alternative for Easter baskets? Why not offer up a basket full of rainbow slime from Learn ~ Play ~ Imagine? (Well, not in the actual basket, of course – but it’s a perfect surprise to tuck in a plastic egg.)

 

DIY Easter Basket Tote

Easter baskets don’t have to be wicker, plastic or even a familiar cartoon character. Look to the fabric aisle at your local craft store for colorful inspiration – and try this soft basket tote from Michele of The Scrap Shoppe blog for The Ribbon Retreat.
