The Easter Bunny is Long Gone....

The Easter bunny is long gone, but I just had to show you a last minute Easter decoration.  I was going to save it for next year, but when I put things away, I have a tendency to lose them...I'm sure most of you can relate...  I'm still trying to find Christmas gifts from years ago!  Anyway, when I saw these peat pot Easter baskets at Musings from Kim K., I just knew I had to make them.  If you haven't already, you must visit Kim's blog!  She is the queen of crafting!  Here's my version of her delightful peat pot Easter baskets...

I didn't have much time to make them, and,thank goodness, they sure were super easy.  I simply bought peat pots at Big Lots, gave them a swipe of pink paint, decoupaged a graphic from The Graphics Fairy, and then sprinkled on the glitter.  Here are my easter basket peat pots sitting on the table...


Hope you had a wonderful Easter!  Special thanks to Kim K. for inspiring me to make this quick and easy Easter decoration!
