In order to be able to give to everyone when we celebrate a holiday with the family, we try to make cute crafty gifts that are affordable for us. The family gives us so much, and we try our best to give back to them also. It makes our son happy to paint anything, so this crafts was very exciting for him. One day we will have more money, but even then I plan to make crafty gifts all the time. They just might be more advanced and detailed.
We bought some paper cups at the party store. 24 for $1.99. Then I had my son paint spring colors all over the outsides (and he also covered the insides). I attached a pipe cleaner to each one to create a handle. Together we filled them half with fake basket grass (25 cents for one package was all we needed) and half with Easter chocolates which we paid about $5 for (with some leftovers for us to snack on)
This simple and super easy craft cost us less then $8.00 and everyone loves getting cute handmade gifts from our son. We can be sure no one else will show up with the same gifts anyway, these are unique.
