This basket was a hit at one of our silent auctions. We decided to make it a sensory basket filled with a variety of fidget toys and everyone’s favorite—Squishmallows. It was one of the most challenging baskets I’ve ever put together because it was huge! With limited time, I couldn’t find a suitable basket, so I improvised by using cardboard wrapped in gift wrap as the base and then wrapped everything in cellophane. Looking back, I wish I had used a cute laundry basket to hold everything—it would’ve been both practical and adorable.
