Easter Time

Seeing as how Easter is this weekend, I've been trying to do different Easter related crafts with my daughter this week.  We ended up painting Easter things (because painting is her favorite). 

I was trying to come up with some different fun crafts when my M-I-L sent me this great idea for Easter Baskets.  The baskets were a bit tricky for my 3 year old daughter, so I went in on this one alone.  I think they turned out really cute. 

The website I referred to above has a great tutorial if your interested in making them.  The only thing I did different was I actually used the plastic container to create a more sturdier basket.  I just cut off the lip of the containter and taped the paper to the inside of the plastic container. 

I think the kids are going to love using them while they hunt for their Easter surprises!
