Easter time is a
time for celebration, joy and rejoicing. It is a time to pray, meet friends,
spend time with family, and of course, share gifts. Easter Sunday is the first Sunday that comes
after the first full moon in the vernal equinox. This is usually in late March
or early April. The festival is celebrated both religiously as well as
secularly.
Religious celebrations include the Easter mass. Every church in the country offers Easter services. The secular celebrations consist of a number of activities that may include the Easter Egg Hunt, Easter lunch with friends, and dyeing hats. Among all these activities, the exchange of gifts is a sure thing.
If you would like to
do something different this Easter, consider making a gift basket for your
loved ones. Here are some great ideas of the different types of gift baskets
you could make.
Easter Bunny Delights Gift
Basket: This could be a real treat for your special
people. You could place a toy bunny as the centre piece of your wicker basket.
Around this bunny, you could place a few Easter bunnies that are made of chocolate.
Place a few brightly painted eggs in between to add a splash of colour. A few
classic ballotin pieces and a raspberry bar will complete the picture.
Easter Cheer Gift Basket: This basket is sure to bring cheerful and
delighted smiles on the faces of your loved ones. Get a paper basket and wrap
it up with colored paper. Throw in some Easter bunnies made of solid chocolate,
add a few wrapped spring truffles, and sprinkle a few dark chocolate bars. If
you wish, you could also add a few brightly colored eggs to make a complete,
balanced basket. Attach a sweet bunny and colorful flowers to the handle and
tie a bright ribbon on it. Here is an absolute treat for those special people
in your life.
Enchanted
Easter Gift Basket:
This basket would make an ideal gift for the family. Pick a cheerful
yellow wicker basket and tie a bright blue ribbon on its handle. You could fill
it with Easter goodies like spring ballotin, foil-wrapped eggs, spring assorted
wrapped truffles. Do not forget to add a few Easter bunnies made from delicious
milk chocolate. You could also add a few spring nuts to give the basket a
wholesome look.
Sweet
Surprise Gift Basket:
This is a luscious way to celebrate not only Easter, but
other occasions such as Graduations, Mother’s Day, or any other special
occasion. Take a brightly covered gift basket or a wicker one with brightly
colored foil paper. Fill it with assorted nuts and caramel. A few bars of milk
chocolate, a few gold ballotin pieces, and some truffles will make a good balance.
Don’t forget to place a bunny to make it an Easter celebration.
These gift basket
ideas would be great not only for Easter, but any special occasion!
