I have only made six of these boxes so far just to test the waters to see how they go.
The takeaway boxes were a very fortuitous find in The Works, reduced to 50p for 3 from £1 ……… and in perfect Easter colours.
I have put 2 small Haribo Easter gum packets, 3 foil wrapped eggs, 3 foil wrapped bunnies and a wrapped chocolate ladybird in each of them, not going over the top and keeping costs low.
No fancy fiddle farting on these either, I just put a rabbit on all four sides with two punched leaf flourishes, I was going to add a few flowers too, but it just looked bitty and too much.
I also kept the tags simple, with a plain, handwritten “Happy Easter” and a bit of faux stitching using a black, fine liner pen.
I think it’s the ribbon that makes the boxes come together ……
……. found in Lidl, 99p for 5 metres. Voila, done and dusted!
The Easter baskets are so cute. I loved the Christmas pyramid tree cards-they were lovely.

Another brilliant make! They'll sell like hot cakes (hot cross buns? LOL) for Easter. But with different decorations would be great for Christmas, birthdays or how about goodie bags at birthday parties?
