Easter Baskets

I can't believe Easter is only about a week away. Usually i'm on schedule with decorating and putting together baskets. This year it seemed to sneak up on me. Is this happening to you?

I have been trying to put together baskets to give out to friends and family, but didn't want to use the traditional plastic type colorful baskets. Don't get me wrong, this is what we use here at the house for the dogs and sometimes for my husband and I. I'm wanting the baskets I give people this year to stand out and also be something they can use year round.

The Zook Family makes an oval Easter Basket that is perfect. I can fit lots of goodies in there, along with jars of Apple Butter and jams. It's a nice deep size so that the fake grass, which by the way is a pain to clean up, can be put in and items on top of it.

There are several baskets you can use for Easter Baskets. It's so much fun to stand out and get really creative with them. Which baskets would you use this year?
