Last-Minute Easter Gifts

It’s not quite the last minute before Easter, but it’s getting close. And if you’re anything like me, the last minute will sneak up on you before you’ve had time to consider the month or day or how many children you have living in your home. Holidays have a way of doing that, you know.

With next week being our officially scheduled week of packing and prepping for the impending move to Southern California, I knew I’d have to get my Easter act together, and do it quick, before the schedule is flooded with a slew of to-do’s and I alltogether forget my name and where I put my mind.

Enter Red Envelope. Have you yet found this, the ultimate gift-giving website? I’m always looking for ways to give personalized, thoughtful, and unique gifts to friends and family, and Red Envelope hit the head on the nail in every one of those categories. Offering everything from vintage-inspired jewelry to stunningly sweet homewares–all of which are delivered directly to your front door without you have to toss your keys  in the car and lift your toes off your kitchen linoleum–Red Envelope is the perfect place for any holiday, and is exactly where we went to nab some seriously gorgeous Easter gifts.

A few days after placing my order for this gorgeous Handprint Canvas Kit (which will set you back a mere $39.95), it arrived on the porch and I was immediately smitten. The packaging is simple, straightforward, and clean. As soon as the box was opened, I was staring directly at all the step-by-step instructions needed to make this pretty wall-hanging.

And look at the colors! Four colored canvases and five tubes of paint. This weekend, we’ll slather the kids fingers with paint and gently press them to the canvases. Voila! The canvases will be decorated, done, and ready for hanging.

Since I’m packing up pictures, rather than hanging things on the wall this week, I’m keeping our canvases tucked away until our Easter-inspired wall-hanging dons the halls of our new home. But, if you want a sneak peek of this fabulously affordable, totally simple gift, check out the results from Go Graham Go. Ca-UUUUte!

Wouldn’t this make the perfect gift for grandparents, daddy’s office, or your front room? Yes, I’d agree, you smart and sexy thang.

No matter who or what you’re shopping for, be sure to check out Red Envelope. Chances are you’re going to fall in love with a lot more than their canvas handprint kit. Yummy gorgeous Easter stuff going on over there.

This product was provided free of charge by RedEnvelope. These are my honest opinions and experiences with the product. Hope yours is as good as mine has been!
