6th Day of Easter – Building a Basket Guide

We have all the supplies needed to help you in building your own baskets: baskets, shred, ribbon, and cello wrap.

Quick Instructions to build a basket:

1. Decide on a basket. Be sure all the items can fit into the selected basket and also make sure the items do no look lost. The most common error people make is selecting too large of a basket. You don’t want the basket to look empty!

2. Put shred to fill the entire bottom of the basket. Be generous!

3. Arrange all the items inside the basket, with the larger items in the back and the smaller items in the front.  Using more shred to help prop up items.

4. Cut a large piece of cellophane, (add more than what you think will work. You don’t want it to be too short!) lay the cellophane out on a table, put the filled basket on top of the cellophane

5. Add the ribbon around the gathered portion of the cellophane.


6. Tie a bow and cut the ends on a slant.

But if you are to busy, we will help you create a custom gift basket for your special someone. Purchase of over $20 and we will pack your Easter Basket for FREE.
