Tip: Making a Paper Easter Basket

Doreen Aery

April 7, 2009

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.
