Craft:



Spring Baskets
Cut 2/3 off the top of a two-litre bottle. Discard the top portion of the bottle. Punch holes opposite of each other near the rim of the bottle. Attach a long pipe cleaner from one hole to the other to form a handle. Then glue pastel coloured tissue paper pieces on the bottle. When the glue dries use puffy paint to personalise the baskets.
