Easter Basket Fairy Garden
Tired of the same old Easter baskets? This is a fun way to mix up the traditional Easter basket into something fun and different!
Materials:
- Basket with handle (any kind will work, but a larger one gives more room for the items)
- Hot glue and glue gun
- Fine Glitter
- Hemp cording
- Jumbo Popsicle stick
- Brown craft paint and brush
- Fake moss and ground cover
- Small rocks (fish tank rocks work great)
- Artificial plants
- Plastic liner (black garbage bag works great) and dirt
- Scissors
- Fairies (find the sleeping fairy HERE and the reading fairy HERE)
- Misc. Fairy garden items
Directions:
- Cut liner and place inside of basket
- Fill basket with dirt
- Trim your jumbo Popsicle stick down to desired size and paint brown
- Hot glue 2 long piece of hemp to each side of popsicle stick to make a swing out of it
- Tie each end of your hemp to the basket handle (making your swing the desired height)
- To make your glitter stepping stones, drip hot glue into blobs in a small cup of glitter and shake gently, let cool
- Place your artificial plants around in your basket
- Glue some moss and ground cover on the basket handle and on some of the basket edges
- Place your fairy items around in your basket along with your glitter stepping stones to the desired look
NOTE: To make it more seasonal you could add some small bunnies, Easter eggs, ect to your garden
