Drip Drip Drop April Showers Watering Can Easter Gift Basket

Today I’m excited to share with you how my Drip Drip Drop April Showers Watering Can Easter Gift Basket came together.

Who doesn’t love a good deal?  I usually purchase my seasonal supplies a year in advance after the holiday when they are on clearance for 80 to 90 percent off.  Last year I found these darling watering cans at an outlet store near me. These cans would make perfect friend Easter Baskets so I purchased several of them because the price was too good to pass up.  As Easter has been approaching I knew I would be filling them but I wanted it to be clever and fit with the watering can theme.  While searching for ideas and all I came up with was gardening supplies and seeds. Although that just seemed so boring and predictable.

At this point I was ready to just throw some Easter grass and eggs in them and find a free printable to tie on the handle.  While I was painting another spring project I kept humming the song from Bambi. Thinking of the words Drip Drip Drop in that song sparked my creativity and at that moment I knew the phrase “Drip Drip Drop” would be a perfect printable tag to make.

The tag could easily be added to  a bottle of water with flavoring. Once I added the tags to the bottles I put them into my little watering cans.  At this point The Drip Drip Drop April Showers Watering Can Easter Gift Basket started coming together!.   The tag came together in only few minutes I used Canva and altered one of their free templates.
