How To Put Together An Eggs-Ellent Easter Basket For A Loved One

 

It may seem that every year, chocolate eggs start appearing in the shops sooner than we had expected – but even by its usual standards, Easter might have somewhat crept up on you this year. In 2021, Easter Sunday will be on 4th April – over a week earlier than in the year prior. 

There are quite complex reasons behind the shifting dates of Easter’s scheduling, as The Sun explains in a detailed and informative article. However, the more crucial question in your mind right now might be how you should treat your loved ones when Easter 2021 does arrive. 

The difference a DIY Easter hamper can make 

Yes, for the relative, friend or lover you have in mind, you could simply opt to buy a ready-made Easter-themed hamper. However, something mass-produced like this can come across as somewhat soulless, which isn’t ideal when you want make a cracking (ahem) impression. 

For this reason, it may be a better idea to eggs-ert (exert – get it?) yourself to make an Easter hamper instead. The container itself doesn’t have to be too fancy – at least not before you spruce it up yourself, such as by attaching ribbons to it. 

You could buy a wicker basket online or from any open ‘high-street’ store that might sell them amid the current lockdown conditions. Or maybe you could even fashion a hamper out of a cardboard box you probably already have at home?

What should you put in your Easter hamper? 

Well, one obvious idea is Easter-themed chocolates. Naturally, there’s likely to be no shortage of those at your local supermarket, meaning you should be able to easily find a wide range of treats, from chocolate bunnies to Mini Eggs, with which to fill the hamper. 

Before you put those chocolates in, though, you could – to help prevent them from incurring damage during transit – layer the inside of the hamper with kraft and coloured shredded paper. This would cushion the chocolates and create a nice “nest” in which the eggs can sit.  

The exact amount of paper you will need will depend largely on the hamper’s size. There are also other factors to consider, such as how tightly the hamper will be packed and with what size of goods. By clicking the following link, you will be able to more easily work out how much hamper kraft filling tissue you will require.
