Instructions to Make Your Own Paper Easter Basket
Step 1
Color the pieces however you like. We used colored pencils to make colorful stripes on the sides of the Easter basket and then used each color in the stripes on a flower. For the handle piece, we cross-hatched the colored pencil marks so it looked more like a traditional Easter basket.
The basket prints as a blank pattern so you can decorate it with whatever design you prefer.
Step 2
Cut out the basket and the basket pieces with scissors.
Step 3
Fold the basket along all the lines using the tabs to tuck inside.
Step 4
Use the tabs to glue the basket into a basket shape and then glue on the accessory pieces like flowers and the “Happy Easter” banner.
Craft tip: Once you decide where you want the handle to be, make a slit in the basket side to slip the end of the handle through and attach on the inside of the basket.
Step 5
Fill up your Easter basket craft with treats of your choice and give as a gift or enjoy yourself.
