Easter Basket - Color Wash

Now that Valentine's Day is behind us I am already to starting to think about Easter.  This year I will try giving Easter baskets a color wash.  Here are some great examples from Martha...

 

According to Martha, you can create your own wash with acrylic paint and water.   She also suggests testing the wash on the inside of the basket before coating the outside--good thinking!   Now I just need to decide on a color theme.

I think I'd test it out a little on the bottom first. That way it's easier to hide if you don't like the results. My baskets sometimes set out with stuff in them in such a way you can see part of the inside of the basket, making it harder to hide the results of a failed experiment.

Just a thought...
