One of the worst sticker shock moments I had was shopping for flower girl baskets! Most of the ones I came across were $40+ each, they were awkwardly tiny, and not very cute. So I decided to make my own! For $25 at hobby lobby I got everything to make these, took me about 30 min. I used: plain wood baskets, chalky finish white spray paint, flower and pearl adornments from the scrapbook section, a little silk material, and hot glue. Our colors are light pink and dark gray so I just incorporated them slightly in the flowers and the basket lining. Here is the before pic of the baskets...finished product below!

    Very cute! There are a lot of really small flower girl baskets. I'll have to check out Hobby Lobby to see what I can come up with. Thanks for the inspiration!

    Wow those are nice. I made my own too. I got my basket at a thrift store for $1. Total cost with decorations was $3. Good job.

    @Shortstack I seriously can't believe the tiny size of most of the ones I found...my flower girls wouldn't have made it 4 steps down the aisle before running out of petals lol
