I've been busy this last week or so. A dear friend was scheduled to come with her 3 boys this week while they had their Spring Break and I was preparing for their visit. Aside from the typical cleaning blah blah blah, I added to my list a craft project (because I seem to thrive on insanity). I saw on a friends blog how to make baskets with yarn and glue (go check it out!) and I decided to make one for each of the kids (that's a total of SIX baskets! see? I'm crazy!! ). The baskets were intended to be used for the egg hunt we had yesterday. Turns out that my friend was unable to come, but my kids had the cutest baskets ever!!! (and hers will too when they get them!)
After seeing the idea on my friends blog, I imbellished a little. First I added a ribbon handle, then lined each basket with ribbon (for reinforcement), then added an initial for each child. I am so pleased with how they turned out!
I think the kids liked them too....what do you think?
**thanks Cat for the great idea!!!
