Fun Easter Grass alternatives

Easter grass is that crinkly, stringy plastic or kraft paper material that comes in bright colors and fills the bottom of an Easter Basket. It is available in many colors and materials. There are some DIY tutorials online on how to make your own which is a bit more environmentally friendly too. It may not appeal to you to use since it’s not exactly safe for little kids who may try to put it in their mouths.
