Since apparently Easter baskets are not a common occurrence over here in France, we made our own this year. I found a pattern for making paper easter baskets, and it was really simple to make! Here’s my basket using the March Muse.

I found the pattern HERE . It’s perfect for using with a 12×12 piece of cardstock, since the pattern calls for a square piece of paper. And all that holds it togehter is a brad on each side of the basket - so easy!! For my handle, I cut two strips of cardstock, taped them together (since a single 12″ strip seemed a little too short), glued the ribbon to the top, and then attached them to the brads on each side.

It was a fun craft for the kiddos too - here are their easter baskets (they used a 12″ strip of cardstock on theirs, but I preferred mine to be a little longer):
