Instructions

  • Copy the Mini Easter Baskets Free pattern off on paper. Here is the link to the pattern: Fun Mini Easter Baskets Free Printable Pattern
    For basket #1 (small 2-inch by 2-inch size) cut on the outline with 9 inner squares. For basket #2 (small 2-inch by 4-inch size) cut out the rectangle of 12 inner squares. The pattern has markings to make this clear.
  • Use this pattern to draw around on the cardstock paper of your choice. Cut along the drawn line.
    Use the pattern to fold the paper up along the dotted fold lines. Press the creases well then lay the paper out flat again.
    For basket #1 or #2 clip the two lines on either end of the paper as shown on the pattern.
    For basket #1 or #2. From the flaps made from these cuts, fold the inner one inward. Fold the outer two up over the inner one and glue onto that center flap.
    Basket #1 will be a 2x2x2-inch basket. Basket #2 will be a 2x4x2-inch basket. 
  • Fill with Easter grass, candy eggs, or small gifts.
