How to Make Back to School Baskets

We love occasion baskets over here! 🙂 What better way to celebrate Back to School time than with a little basket of festive goodies?!

This year, many of the girls items are from Dollar Tree, Target, Walmart, and Five Below. I made the nametags with acrylic paints, stickers, and yarn. I tried to make the clothespins look like pencils 🙂

I was thrilled to have found these pink pennant flags from The Letterman Co. that I’ll have Ava (and Ellie eventually) hold for her first/last day of Kindergarten pictures.

What to Include in your Back to School Basket:

  • Pajamas
  • Festive cups/plates
  • Books (you can view my list of recommendations + our Back to School book shelf here)
  • Stickers (I usually pick these up from Target or Dollar Tree!)
  • Fun school supplies
  • Back to School clothes and/or shoes
  • Pennant flags from Etsy

Our Back to School Basket Sources:

  • Shoes: Glitter Crocs & Nikes
  • Apple Garland: Pearl & Jane
  • Pennant Flags: The Letterman Co.
  • Calculator/Sequin mermaid bags: Dollar Tree (also here)
