I recently made an Easter basket that was too girlie for a boy so I had to come up with something that a boy might be ok with. This is what I made. I still think it won’t appeal to too many boys though, maybe just the very young ones.
This basket is supposed to resemble a boy’s dress shirt with collar, faux button placket and bow tie. It is lightly padded and fully lined. It measures about 6″ in diameter and about 6″ tall.
