Easy Easter Buckets


Mama made these colorful treat totes for Buby's cousins Spencer, Grace and Parker who will spend (a chilly) Easter weekend in Buby Land. Aunt Jen: If you're reading... Shhh!

I chose petite metal buckets with wooden handles from AC Moore, dotted felt squares (in lieu of plastic grass or tissue paper) for a pinch of contrast and modernity, self-stick foam lettering for personalization, and random childish delights to stuff inside. Unlike a wicker basket, the kiddos can use these in their bedrooms year-round to store art supplies, matchbox cars, or a zillion tiny hair ties. Cheap Thrill of the Week: 100 sassy fasteners in varying colors and textures for 99 cents at JoAnn Fabrics. That's right folks, 99 cents for a lifetime supply! I was giddy all the way home.
