Cover the work surface with newspaper. After place a sheet of wax paper on a cutting board. Place some sand on the wax paper and roll a piece of colored chalk across the sand until the sand is completely changed to that color. <\/span><\/p>\n

Carefully lift the wax paper and gently shake the sand to the center of the wax paper. Hold both ends of the paper up to use it as a pour spout to pour the colored sand into the bottle. You can use a funnel if you find it easier. <\/span><\/p>\n

Repeat these steps until you have several colors of sand layered in your bottle. <\/span><\/p>\n

If you have a cap for your bottle, be sure to fill it completely with sand and press down firmly on the sand to compact it. Place cap on tight. Then fill to the top with glue and let dry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Start out by using the utility knife to cut the bottom 2- to 3-inches off of the plastic bottle. This will be your basket, so you have to decide about its depth (can make it as deep or as shallow as you like). <\/span><\/p>\n

Next, use the utility knife to make two small slits on the side of the basket, directly across from each other and about a half to one inch down from the top. Poke an end of the chenille stem through each slit so about an inch hangs into the inside of the basket. Fold up the ends of the chenille stem and secure them with a little bit of glue.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now you can decorate it! You can startI by covering the top edge with a ribbon.. Decorate the outside of the basket as you desire. <\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, Fill the basket with a little bit of Easter grass or comfetti. Your basket is ready now! Enjoy!<\/span><\/p>\n
