Who says the Easter Bunny only delivers baskets to kids? Whether you’re eight years old or a grown-up, an Easter egg hunt and a bunny basket full of Easter treats are a blast. There’s more to this tradition than just the traditional candy Easter basket, too.

Whether you’d like to pamper a friend, a family member, or yourself, we have the creative Easter basket ideas to set the mood for gift giving. Add your own touch to each basket by including fillers and Easter basket stuffers such as decorative eggs and other fun trinkets. So, hop into Spring with these ten creative DIY self-care-themed Easter basket ideas.

1. Kids’ Bath Time Easter Basket

Making kids’ Easter baskets can sometimes be overwhelming — but it just got way easier.

Make bath time more fun with an Easter basket filled to the brim with goodies for the tub. Kids of all ages go crazy for the Spongeasaurus Collection. T-Rex, Triceratops, and Stegosaurus-shaped sponges introduce play-based learning to little ones by bringing these Dinos to life in the tub. Each sponge dinosaur is packed inside a surprise Dino egg and filled with Spongelle’s creamy sulfate-free body wash.

Scents of juicy watermelon, watery pear, and crisp apple create zingy suds that your skin will love. Did we mention these animals are sulfate-free, cruelty-free, and vegan-friendly? Place one or all of these dinosaurs inside a bed of Easter grass for the cutest basket they’ll go wild after.

Add a splash of variety by placing a Spongelle Duck, Fish, or Butterfly alongside the Dinosaur sponge. Can’t decide? Pick up the Spongelle Sponge Animal Assorted Pack, containing all three animal sponges.

2. Tea Lovers Easter Basket

Gift a smile this Easter with Tea-themed adorable Easter basket fillers. For this DIY Easter basket, fill a wooden basket with a dishcloth or tea towel, an elegant demi spoon, loose leaf tea, tasty tea biscuits, and a teacup for a memorable gift for any tea lover. Complete the package with Spongelle Tea blossom diffuser oil or a Tea blossom multi-use sponge. These items add a spa-like touch that makes the gift a serene and sophisticated delight.

The oil diffuser contains a beautiful floret ready to be steeped into the alluring fragrance of bergamot, red currant, green tea, and white amber. The captivating aroma adds ambiance to any room.

The tea blossom multi-use sponges are drenched with an infusion of triple butter body wash to cleanse, exfoliate, massage, and nourish the skin. They’re enriched with black tea and coffee extracts to awaken the senses.
