Baby’s First Easter Basket

Today I’m linking up with Stephanie and Katie for Saw it, Pinned it, Did it and showing off Hudson’s first Easter basket! I had way too much fun putting this together. I’ve been working on it for a while and also pinned Emily’s basket ideas to use as an inspiration.

Needless to say my planning paid off…Hudson loved the “sneak peak” of his basket!

My mom gifted Hudson with this basket from Pottery Barn Kids. He will put it to good use year after year!

I filled it with all sorts of goodies, including some books, bubbles, stuffed bunny, bunny sippy cup, socks, bunny ears, and an “it’s awesome time” shirt from The Printed Palette. (LOVE!)

Cute animal eggs from Target. Love them!

I got this bunny when I was pregnant with Hudson and saved it knowing it would be perfect for his first Easter. I added a bow tie from the dollar spot at Target.

And yes…the basket is bigger than he is! He will thank me one day when it’s time to hunt eggs!

    What an adorable basket! Is that a PBK bunny I spy? My Avery got one last year and she still carries it around everywhere and calls it "bun bun". Precious, glad Hudson loved his sneak peak.
