Photo Craft: Puffy Tissue Paper Easter Basket

April 9, 2011 by Susie Chadwick Leave a Comment

Are you and your kids having as much fun making Easter crafts as we are?  I hope so! My kids and I have crafted an entire wall of Spring and easter crafts.  We put our fun easter basket photo crafts right in the center.

Supplies for tissue paper Easter Basket Photo Craft:

  • cereal box
  • pencil
  • sheet of cardstock
  • scissors
  • photo (works best with portrait orientation)
  • tissue paper squares, about 1.5×1.5 inches (I used crepe paper)
  • white glue
  • shallow container for glue
  • unsharpened pencil

1. Draw an Easter basket shape on the inside of the cereal box.  Make sure the hole in the basket handle will fit your photo nicely.  Cut out the Easter basket shape.

2. Cover the cardboard Easter basket template with puffs of tissue paper squares. There are detailed instructions for this in the Puffy Tissue Paper Easter Egg Craft instructions.  As usual, little brother is coloring in the background.

3. Glue the photo onto the sheet of cardstock.  Glue the tissue paper-covered Easter Basket over the photo.  I added some green tissue paper puffs under the basket for grass.

4.  Trim the cardstock around the Easter basket, if desired.

My preschooler had a lot more endurance with the tissue paper squares than when we made the puffy easter egg craft.  She made an entire Easter basket overflowing with colored eggs.

The quiz explores your Freedom, Growth, Connection, Purpose, Health, Peace, and Joy. You might discover areas of your life you'd like to enrich further for your overall well-being! 😌

Remember, there are no wrong answers here. This isn't a test; it's a self-discovery journey toward understanding what true wealth means to you. Ready to redefine wealth? 🚀

    NOVEMBER = THANKSGIVING

Why not make it a practice to express gratitude daily, not just on Thanksgiving?  What we focus on expands.  It's so easy to see all the negativity in the world, especially online. Is anyone interested in joining me for a daily gratitude photo challenge?  If we focus on the little things that we are grateful for, our whole world changes.
