A Tisket, A Tasket, A Little Easter Basket

My last post was part one of a little mini Easter series. (As in a 2-part series.) I showed how to make a yummy Easter treat.

This post is part two of that series.

I’m going to show you how to make a cute little cone-shaped Easter basket. You can use the basket filled with the treat to give to your grandkids for Easter.

This is super easy to make and uses very little supplies. Here’s what you need to make the cone basket:

• Easter-themed scrapbook paper
• scissors
• glue stick
• Easter basket cone pattern

Print up and cut out the cone and handle pattern. Hold it on top of your scrapbook paper and cut out the cone and handle from the scrapbook paper.

Roll up the paper into a cone shape.

I found that I needed to crease the tip so that it would hold the cone shape.

Put glue on one of the straight edges of the cone.

Roll up the cone and hold it for a little bit while the glue is drying.

Glue on the handle and your Easter basket is finished!

Now that you’ve finished your cute little basket, fill it with the sweet Easter treat that I shared with you in my last post.

Then, give the little basket to your grandchildren when they come over for your Easter party or just to visit.

Of course the candy gets picked out and eaten first!

My grandchildren are a wee bit too tiny to make these baskets. I don’t think they have the small motor control (or the patience) to make them. However, I think that grandkids eight years old and older would easily be able to make these baskets.

Kids of ALL ages are able to eat the popcorn treat. Well, those that have teeth . . .
