I wanted to do something different for my boys Easter Baskets this year. In the past - I've normally just purchased the Easter themed ice cream pail. But not this year!!
I found these plain wicker baskets in the craft department at Walmart. Not the Easter isle.. but way in the back by all the sewing/craft items. They were $3.99 each.
Then I dug in my stash for some "boy" fabric and made simple liners with elastic around the edges.
My plan is that when Easter is over - these baskets will go in their bedrooms. They will serve as a "dumping" place for items that I find around the house that the boys need to put away.
Hopefully - the plan will work.

great idea!! Little do they know what's in store for them after the chocolate bunnies are gone! They are soooo cute.
What a wonderful idea. Hugs.
That's just one fab idea... will have to remember it!
great idea Heidi,a safe and happy easter to you and your family
Love the baskets! And them being a dumping place might work as well. Worth giving it a try anyway!
Very nice! This year I opted for tin pails. My two are just discovering fishing so I thought they'd be good to tote around water, worms, whatever...
Very cute idea! Happy Easter to you and your family......:)
Cute idea!
Great boy baskets. And useful afterwards too.
have a wonderful Easter.
Very clever and even a better after Easter use!!
Such a great idea. You usually can't use the baskets with the handles after Easter. I think I need one for my own junk! Have a Happy Easter! Hope you get hyped on chocolate and get lots of sewing done!
Great baskets! Love them!
I love your new baskets and anything that can used to throw things in after is a bonus !
Great idea! Easy to coordinate to a room's decor, and becomes a cleaning tool after Easter... What's not to love?
