Step 1: Start by downloading our bunny and basket template (Download link at the end of the post).
Step 2: Color both the templates with your choice of colors. We have used markers for bunny and ribbon, color pencils for the basket.
Step 3: Carefully cut out bunny, ribbon and basket along the dotted lines. We added dotted lines to make it easier for kids to cut and it looks neat after coloring. Cut the Egg shape to use it for tracing.
Step 4: Trace the egg on card stock sheet with your choice of colors and cut it. You can fit six eggs in your basket easily.
Step 5: Now its time to decorate eggs. We have decorated two eggs with similar pattern.
Polka dots egg- For this we have used white paper dots from hole punch and glued on eggs.
Wavy design- In this one we have used wavy scissors. Cut one thick and one thin strip of paper and glue it on eggs as shown.
Stripy egg- Cut thin strips of colored paper and glue on eggs.
Step 6: Flip all the eggs and cut extra design of papers from eggs.
Step 7: Cut the edge of basket with paper cutter as shown in picture to fit eggs.
Step 8: Arrange all the eggs, bunny, ribbon in the basket and glue them.
Step 9: Take a pipe cleaner and make a spiral shape by folding it in a circular motion at one end. Glue this spiral shape in the middle of the basket.
Step 10: Glue the other end of pipe cleaner to the back of the basket.
That's all! Your cute Easter basket is ready.
