Edible Easter Baskets! #SCBH2015

Good morning, savvy savers! Spring has sprung, as have the myriad of Easter-themed projects around the net, and The Lady Prefers To Save is no exception! Today, I wanted to share my Edible Easter Basket Project as part of the #SCBH2015 !

For this project you will need:

• 4 Theater Boxes of Candy
• 1 8″ Square of Cardboard
• 1 Pack of Tubed Easter Candy, for Handles
• Recycled Paper Shreds or Edible Paper Shreds

To make this project:

1. For this project I simple hot glued four theater candy boxes together.
2. Next, hot glue a small square of cardboard beneath the basket for stability.
3. I then used tubed Easter candy for handles.
4. The basket is filled with Dollar Tree goodies, and filled with recycled paper shreds!

And that’s it, voila! I was able to make this basket for $4.00! This basket would make a great addition for young children, neighbors, friends, family, teacher, and co-workers! The customization options for this basket is endless. 

Here’s to crafting!
