Easter Basket

Easter is right around the corner and now is the perfect time to make these super cute Easter baskets to present to your loved ones.

Easter is not about the eggs or bunnies or chicken or spring . Its all about " Jesus died for my sins ....but HE rose again the third day. HE IS ALIVE!!!" So what is more fun about these baskets is that you can hide a note of hope and faith inside the egg along with the candies,  like "He is risen" , "My Redeemer lives" , etc.




What You'll Need:

Card stock / Scrapbook Paper / Patterned printed A4 sheet -1
Coffee Filter - 1
Cupcake liner - 1
Contrast color paper strip / ribbon -  to make a bow
White School Glue
Easter Grass / Strips of green tissue paper
Plastic Eggs -2
Candies (of choice)
Notes of hope / faith -  Handwritten or printed

How to do:

  1. Cut the card stock paper about 10" x 2". Cut another patterned paper about 10" x 1". Glue the patterned paper on top of the other. 
  2. Glue the ends together to make the base of the basket.
  3. Cut the upper half of the coffee filter and glue it to the inside of the base of the basket.
  4. Cut the card stock paper about 10" x 1". Cut another patterned paper about 10" x 1/2". Glue the patterned paper on top of the other. This makes the handle of the basket.
  5. Glue the handle to the inside of the coffee filter. (This will be hidden later)
  6. Now, glue the cupcake liner to the inside of coffee filter.
  7. Make a paper or ribbon bow and glue to the handle.
  8. Fill the basket with Easter grass (available in craft stores) or strips of green tissue paper and candy filled eggs with the note of hope.
  9. Surprise your loved ones.
  10. Have a blessed Easter.
