Easter Basket

Several weeks ago, I received the Pottery Barn Kids catalog. I am not sure how I got on their mailing list, but it is almost torture to look at because I love almost everything in there, and can afford not one single thing! What caught my eye most in the latest issue was the adorable display of Easter baskets! I really liked the one, below, with the green and blue plaid. However, I was not about to spend $50 on an Easter basket. Not only is that not in my budget, but it seems like an awful lot of moola to be laying out for a basket that's used once a year.

So last week while doing some organizing, I happened upon a basket I already owned that was pretty darn cute and already in my house. I mulled this over for a bit, and then realized that I had some really cute Amy Butler fabric in my stash that had a little boy's Easter-y feel to it. So tonight I got out my sewing stuff and made a liner out of fabric I had on hand for the basket I had on hand. I think it turned out pretty darn cute! And the price was right. :)
