Unique Easter Basket, Easter 3/7

As promised, here is Wednesdays Easter project. I had to split this post into two so make sure to scroll down and see the lady bug version I made for my niece. I have been seeing on pinterest people using smaller bottles to put gift cards into so i decided to use a 2 Litre bottle to put my niece and nephews Easter goodies into. I cut the bottle in half, or you could just cut a hole, placed all the gifts inside and used duct tape to put the bottle back together. Then the sky is the limit on how you want to decorate it. I chose a dinosaur theme for my nephew and had a lot of fun decorating with bright colors and home made "wobbles". All you need for a home made wobble is some beading wire and a pencil. Curl the wire around the pencil and then glue one end to your dinosaur and one end underneath your dinosaur.
Products Used: (1)Cricut Expression/Gypsy (2)Create a Critter Cricut Cartridge (3)Cardstock (Recollections) (4)Googly Eyes (Dollar Store) (5)Beading Wire (6)Twine (For nest on top of bottle) (7)Glitter Dinosaur Egg Stickers (Put into nest) (8)Glue Gun/Sticks (9)Ribbon (Celebrate-It) (10)2L Pop Bottle (11)Easter goodies. See you tomorrow for another round of Easter inspired projects. Till next time...
