After a beautiful but gray winter, it’s been a treat to begin to see cello wrapped chocolate molds and bright candy displays in the shop windows for the upcoming Easter season. As I plan our first Easter living in Germany, I’m getting easter basket gifts from Etsy.
I love how Etsy celebrates handmade gifts and makes it easy to support different makers, even from far corners of the world, in one check out experience. Since we’re out of town from family this year, I’ve loved looking on Etsy not only for my own family’s baskets but for gifts to send to people I love to celebrate Easter and the welcoming of spring!
These are just a few of the finds I’ve been excited about!
Easter Gifts for Kids From Etsy
Kids Wooden Baking Set – This adorable baking set is beautiful, inspiring children to pull up a stool and work alongside their grown up in the kitchen.
Personalized Coloring Pages – The perfect thing to bring along to spring and summer road trips and sporting events to keep little ones busy.
Wooden Slingshot with Felt Balls – I love putting something old fashioned, like a jump rope or even a whoopee cushion in an Easter basket. This looks like a safe version of good old fashioned fun.
Finger Puppet Making Kit – I love these sweet designs! Finger puppets become something to play with after this fun sewing craft is complete.
Hand Puppets – Our hand puppet has become a loyal companion and alter ego of some of our sassy sides in the family since I bought it on a whim in February. I love this puppet shop and how animated each design already looks!
Rainbow Make a Mosaic Kit – Another fun craft kit that will look great in your window long after it’s done!
Grow Your Own Sunflower Kit – This kit that inspires spring planting benefits relief efforts in the Ukraine.
Peep Bath Bombs – So cute!
Daisy Flower Lanyard – This sweet garland is the perfect addition to a little girls’ room. My daughter loves deciding where to hang things like this in her space.
Bead Kit – Little designers go wild for this bead kit. I know – I designed it myself! 🙂 I love our special assortment of beads we search everywhere to find. Add a name for free!
Kids Personalized Sunglasses – Nothing kicks off summer fun more than a great pair of shades!
SpongeBob Socks Pack – Sometimes we get the hero we deserve. As a SpongeBob family, these socks are sure to get a laugh and make getting dressed for school easy and fun.
Easter Gifts for Grown Ups from Etsy
Custom Text Motel Keychain – My Mom named our new home in Ecuador Casa Rosa, which partly inspired me to name our homes. Our new flat was christened with its own motel keychain, which makes the perfect small gift for yourself or to send to someone you love.
Snoopy Folding Bag – Single use shopping bags don’t come for free where we live, and I have quickly learned the value of an extra bag that folds nicely. Very big bonus points are added if anything I need comes in Snoopy form.
Block Print Napkins – Something beautiful for the Easter basket quickly becomes a reason to have friends over to celebrate spring.
Paint Your Own Mushroom Kit – How cute! These would be great as a family activity where the finished products can be brought out for Easter each year.
Adult DIY Mosaic Kit – I’m against kids having all of the fun. This cute design would look great on a desk or in the garden.
Band Patches – A cute addition to a jean jacket, sweatshirt or backpack. I love finding things with someone’s favorite band, book or movie to remind them that they’re known.
Manifestation Candle – It’s the time of the season. Light it up and call it in.
Gnome Garden Stakes – Too perfect!
Custom Name Art – This is so cute for a desk or bookshelf. A family name would make a great gift too!
Stick and Stitch Embroidery Outlines – I love this for pillow cases, purses or the pocket of a favorite pair of jeans.
Wildflower Seed Bombs – The perfect gift for your gardener or nature lover. Stop to smell the flowers and save the bees!
Smile Socks – I’m proud to be at an age where I understand why my grandmother gave socks as gifts.
For me, finding Easter gifts on Etsy lets me support small businesses while getting my shopping done easily so I can relax and enjoy the best parts of this special spring holiday.
What are your plans for Easter weekend? It still feels like such a blessing to be able to get together and celebrate!
