Flower Girl?

I had previously decided that I wanted my flower girl to carry a basket instead of a mini bouquet, but now I'm having second thoughts, especially since I can't seem to find a basket that doesn't remind me of Easter. Anyone know of a place that I can find a cute one? Or an opinion on Bouquet-vs-Basket?

    I bought one at Hobby Lobby. It was your basic wedding basket though. All white with lace on it. They go 50% off so it was $10.
    My mom and I actually talked about this one and figured my nieces would probably be nervous and a basket would be the easiest thing for them to carry. It would also give them something to concentrate on other than the crowd. But mine are only 3 and 4.

    I think she should carry a little basket, its part of being a flower girl but if you want to do something different then have a little bouquet or a kissing ball fixed for her and she can carry that around the reception site and for other pictures too.

    My FG will be carrying a basket of petals. Whether or not she tosses the petals is her choice, she'll be a month shy of three at that point. There are plenty of non-Easter looking baskets. Check out Hobby Lobby or any other craft store or even check garage sales. I have found a few really cute baskets at garage sales.

    Another fun alternative is a tulle pom that is very easy to carry, and looks adorable!
