Homemade Recycled Easter Basket
For a quick, easy, and cheap Easter basket, rinse and clean an empty liter soda bottle, cut a 1 inch "ring" at the top of the body of the bottle (after the spout), and cut in half. Trim the rest of the body of the bottle to the height of the "basket" you'd like.
Reuse plastic Easter eggs by keeping change in them for parking meters. They can be used to store small wrapped pieces of gum, small toys, and crayons for unexpected waiting.
Does anyone have instructions for making quick and easy Easter pins? I am looking for a rabbit, chick, or an Easter egg. Thanks.
Making Easter Baskets and Hats
I am looking for ideas for Easter hats for boys and girls and baskets.
Has anyone made a bunny rabbit out of a empty coffee can? I want to paint the face on the can.
I designed this Easter Basket for my 1 year old granddaughter. I drew a bunny on both sides by hand, with beads for eggs under him. Then I put a pom pom tail on the end. I spelled her name out on the handle, with more egg beads.
Using a recycled grapevine wreath from Christmas, I bought 6 packages of different types of eggs from the dollar store. I used my hot glue gun to place the eggs. It only took about 1 hour to do, and the cost was about $8.
To make an Easter basket, you can use either construction paper or an old shoebox with a lid. If you use construction paper, you will need scissors, stapler, pencil, ruler and markers or crayons or whatever else you want to use for embellishment.
Use Dental Floss to Hang Plastic Easter Eggs
We like to hang up plastic Easter eggs on our trees outside. We found the best string to use was dental floss. It really withstands the weather well!
Craft: Ribbon Ties Easter Wreath
Easy way to decorate your grapevine wreaths for Easter are just to run a ribbon through it's vines and then just use plastic eggs and sandwich the ribbon between the egg and close (no glue needed). Add silk flowers and then choose two colors of ribbon, cut in 12 inch strips, and tie and knot off all over the wreath and let dangle. Fast, pretty look and no use of glue. Happy Easter! :-)
To make the coolest eggs around, all you need is food-coloring. Simply hold your egg in one hand & drip 1 drop of food-color onto your egg. Next, spin and twirl the egg in between your fingers as the drop of food color swirls and moves around the egg, then do the same thing with another color over that one.
Recycling an Old Grapevine Wreath for Easter
I recycled an old grapevine wreath. I took off all of the old flowers and decorations and put on some new fresh plastic spring flowers and hot glued one dozen plastic Easter eggs around through the flowers and on the wreath. I looks wonderful on my front door.
I was just wondering if it would work the same as foam, if you used a straw wreath to decorate with plastic easter eggs?
Grandson and his Easter Basket
This is a picture of my 11-month-old grandson with the Easter Basket that I made for him this year. I actually wove the basket myself! (Not too bad for a first-timer).
Making Easter Wreaths With Bath Puffs
Does anyone know a way to make easter wreaths using bath puffs?
I am looking for directions for making stuffed animal bunnies out of infant/toddler Children's socks. I lost the directions.
Creative Easter Bonnets or Hats
I know it's a little early but does anyone have any ideas on making Easter bonnets or hats? Something different from the norm would be great, I've already seen a great one involving covering a cap with yellow strips of yarn and adding yellow feather wings, googly eyes and orange felt feet to make a large chick hat.
Easter is a great time to capture family photographs for scrapbooking. Even if you don't scrapbook, planning your picture taking ahead of time ensures you won't miss any of these great family memories. No family traditions? Then this is a great time to start!
I bought a big container of Creative Hands, foam shapes, at Valentines. They are the ones with hearts, circles, triangles, and squares. Looking for something to do for Easter. Any suggestions? Something easy that a 6 year old could do. Thanks for any suggestions.
