DIY Easter Baskets

Last week we had an egg hunt at school. Instead of having every child bring their own basket, we decided to make them! They only hold about 3 eggs which was perfect for our hunt. They were easy and turned out super cute!

Materials:

Liquid starch
Strips of construction paper
Styrofoam bowls
Pipe cleaners

Step 1:
Paint the styrofoam bowl with liquid starch.

Step 2:
Apply strips of construction paper one or two at a time. Our kiddos just ripped their own strips!

Step 3:
Paint with liquid starch after applying one to two pieces of paper. Continue process until entire bowl is covered.

Step 4:
Let air dry for about 24 hours. Remove from bowl.

Step 5:
Punch holes at the top and add a pipe cleaner! Voila! Your very own Easter Basket!
