Welcome! I am a mom to two wonderful kids, a lovely retired greyhound, and a wife to a great husband. Needless to say, there are a lot of daily messes to clean up around our house. Daily Messes is my blog to share ideas on things to do with your kids, snack and meal ideas, crafts, and holiday fun. I hope you find something to enjoy!

Easy Easter Basket Centerpieces


These cute little baskets are easy to make and pretty versatile. You can use them as a centerpiece or place setting at Easter dinner, or fill with goodies for a Hostess Gift. If you use floral and neutral colors, they would make a great Mother's Day gift (fill with candy, a necklace or earrings, etc.)

For these you will need:
  • Clay flower pots
  • Glue
  • Ribbon (optional)
  • Thick decorative paper (like cardstock or scrapbooking paper).
  • Clothespins, optional

Directions:
1. Cut out handle and attach to the pot using craft glue. I used clothespins to clamp it on while it dried.
2. Next cut out the ribbon or paper for the top edge, attach with glue and clamp on.
3. Finally, fill with Easter grass, eggs, candy, egg candles, etc.
