3/29/2026

0 Comments

 
This year, we’re filling baskets with things kids will actually use, love, and create with—because the world needs more artists, right? 🎨
Here are some of our favorite creative Easter basket ideas:

​The best Easter baskets aren’t the ones packed with stuff--
they’re the ones that invite kids to make something, explore something, and feel proud of what they create.

And bonus?
These are the kinds of things that stick around long after the candy is gone.

    Allison May Jensen, owner

    Orange Easel began in 2012—just me, teaching art to kids in my basement studio.

    Since then, we've grown into two studio locations and team of artists teachers who share a passion for kids and creativity.

    We're not a franchise. We're not a big corporation. We're a small, local business built on heart and art.

    I'm so glad you're here! This blog is full of ideas, activities, and resources to inspire process-based art at home, in classrooms, and beyond.
