Easter is a time of renewal, joy, and celebration, and what better way to embrace its spirit than by crafting your very own Easter basket? This DIY tutorial will guide you through the simple steps to create a charming basket that will be perfect for gathering eggs or displaying festive treats.
To begin, gather a square piece of paper and fold it into nine equal sections, with three folds along each side, as shown in Figure 1. Next, carefully cut along the indicated red lines, dividing the paper into smaller segments (Figure 2). These segments will form the base and sides of your basket.
Using the folding technique depicted in Figure 5, begin to shape the sides of the basket by folding the paper upwards. Repeat this step on all four sides to form the basket’s structure. Secure the folded sections together using glue, ensuring a sturdy hold (Figures 6-9).
Repeat the folding and gluing process on the other half of the paper to complete the basket’s construction (Figure 10). Once both halves are secured, adorn the seams with decorative flowers or embellishments to cover any visible overlap of paper strips (Figure 11).
Finally, craft a handle for your basket using a long strip of paper. Attach the handle to opposite sides of the basket, ensuring it is securely fastened and balanced.
