Nature Faux Easter Basket With Dollar Tree Items
I love the earthy looking, Boho chic style so today I decided to make a Easter basket for my decor using this style. I love how it turned out! Check it out and let me know what you think. I would love to see yours if you make one too!
What you’ll need:
Glue sticks
Twine / jute
Deer Moss
Floral wire
Grapevine wreath
Wire hanging basket
Coco liner
You can get all these at your local Dollar Tree store.
Take your wire basket and place it into the grapevine wreath.
To secure them togther, take your wire and twist it around the wire basket. Then insert it halfway through the wreath and twist it. Doing this twice should be enough to secure them together.
You can also remove the hooks from the hanging basket as you won't need these.
For the basket handle, I went outside and grabbed a tree branch. I then wrapped my twine around it.
It should look something like this. I used my twine to tie the branch onto the basket. You can also use your hot glue to make sure it's secure.
Insert the coco liner into the basket.
Now you can open up your moss.
Put some glue on the moss and stick it over the wire so you can't see it.
Glue all the way around the basket top attaching the coco liner as you go and adding moss along the edge.
Use a good amount of moss
Add some moss by the handle to cover the twine where you tied it on.
When you are done, it should look something like this. I love it!
Now, it’s ready to fill with whatever you like! I added some cute Easter decor but be creative!

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
My thought - why not just buy a basket at the dollar store? They have Easter baskets.
If you use the coco liner, can you use real plants?
