Unique Easter Gift Basket Ideas for Adults
The quickly approaching Easter holiday inspired me to dream up these three gift basket ideas for adults (we like Easter gifts too, right). However, instead of filling boring traditional baskets, I love to look for non-conventional containers that are fully reusable...and a gift themselves. The container you choose will set the mood for the basket contents...such as a colander that is then filled with kitchen accessories, recipe cards, and oven mitts. These three basic basket ideas here can easily be customized using different fillers that suit your gift recipient and budget...and of course they are not just Easter appropriate. I'd personally love to receive a basket like one of these...any time of the year. Wouldn't you?! xo Ez

Saw that beautiful Rifle Paper co. notebook from their new collection yesterday, totally in love!
I absolutely love these! I wouldn't mind a bit more chocolate in my Easter baskets, but these adult versions are fantastic. Great job, Ez!
such cute ideas!! i always think adults miss out on gift giving at easter :)
I'll take the top basket please! Darn Anthropolgie and their coffee mugs:)
love this! what a creative idea! i love the weekend adventurer one. So much fun x
These are wonderful! I really love the feathergrain tray--and it's all of 8.99 at The Container Store? Wow! Really lovely picks all around. Thanks for the inspiration!
Ok, every time you make a roundup, I add about dozen items to my wish list. Thanks for the inspiration, Ez!
Oooh I love the first and third one. I'd love anyone forever for bringing me a copy of Kinfolk, I never buy magazines anymore.
Brilliant ideas, Ez! I LOVE them! :)
I'm going to be very cheeky (oh I hope you forgive me, but I can't resist!)
and say that perhaps something you forgot (wink wink) was Spoonful!!
These are my passion or my babies as it were...

I know I already gushed on twitter about how much I love this idea, but srsly, great idea even for a Mother's Day gift!
This is such a good idea! Why should the parents get left out? I'm making baskets for us too this year!
Love this! Especially that first batch. Just too sweet! :)
These are great! I'll take one of each.
Love these ideas - I wish someone would bring me an Easter basket! I'm thinking I should begin not-so-subtly hinting that basket no.1 would make a splendid Mother's Day gift for me :)

Great job with these - each is appealing in its own way and I'm impressed you thought of 3 complete themes!
What a unique idea!
Such a lovely post! Perfect combinations - great ideas, reasonable price points, graphically so pretty, easily accessible items and clever themes! So, so, so classy!
so wonderful! i love them all.
Oooo love these! So helpful. Especially for those "these-people-have-everthing-what-the-hell-do-I-buy-them" moment.s
I love Basket Number one! That tray is fantastic!
These basket ideas are so adorable! What a creative gem you are ;)
I love the rifle paper & co journal. So pretty. And I need to get my hands on a kinfolk magazine!
When we were dating, my husband made me an easter basket out of 3 springform pans, and it had baking tools inside. Super cute!
Lovely ideas!
A candy centered Easter basket is perfect for anyone with a sweet tooth. Fill a miniature wire basket with green, pink, or purple Easter grass. Add a handful of different colored foil-wrapped chocolate candies, jelly beans, and other Easter favorites.
