Natural Easter Baskets

Boil your eggs with these natural plant-based dyes for pretty, edible Easter eggs. I think the packaging alone is frame-worthy. If you’re feeling particularly Martha, Whole Foods has some great ideas on how to naturally dye your easter eggs with food items from your kitchen. Nova Natural Toys and Crafts also sells the Easter Grass Fleece pictured here. Yay to avoiding plastic easter grass invading every nook and cranny of your home.

Or, if you really want to bring nature into your baskets (or make the coolest Spring centerpiece ever) you can plant wheat berries and grow your own grass. Instructions for this at ecobites.com. We did something similar for the place cards at my wedding, and they turned out great. Thanks to my dad, who tended to about 100 little pots of grass!
