My first attempt at an Easter basket made from magazine pages looked ok, but nearly impossible to put together, and rather fragile....So I tried again!
This time I used a small yogurt cup, tape, and glue stick (blue glue stick). It is mainly held together with glue.
Steps: measure, cut, weave & glue, weave & glue, glue & weave, cut container, glue, press together (gentle, gentle!), take another page, fold it a million times (to make handle), glue....Recycle after Easter!
(The egg is just a prop - not hard boiled...I burnt six hard boiled eggs this morning...I forgot I was cooking them - does this ever happen to you? It happens to me 80% of the time when I make hard boiled eggs, and I make them often!)
I saw a thing online today about steaming eggs as opposed to boiling them. ten mins in a veggie steamer.
ReplyDeleteCute basket!
oh, I burn too many things to mention :) cute baskets, that reminds me, Baby C needs a new dress for Easter
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute and a perfect Easter craft. I just hope my little guy would have the patience to do this.
