The ones I had planned or the ones I will actually get done??HA!
I am having a ton of people for Easter and have treat bags planned. For those I am making toppers for them of course with stamps ;) then I will staple them onto some kind of bags. I *think* I will use some kraft paper I have that was used as packing filler for something either I or my husband bought. It is a nice LARGE sheet and there is plenty to make some medium size treat bags. I also will be making a few various other things..but that is probably as far as it will go. LOL..I would love some other ideas too though..I am fresh out at this point.
I haven't seen it but that would be kinda fun! I am feeling a bit over whelmed with everything I *want* to do LOL..I will get it all done..under pressure I am sure HA!
Wal-Mart has paper biodegradable grass for filling Easter baskets . . .
Here's my sour-cream-container carrot boxes. I made the grass out of green ribbon. It was super easy and I love the way it turned out. I'm working on treat bags today with Glassine envelopes.
Beate's tutorial calls for a 4.25 x 5.5" piece of cardstock. That's convenient for a regular 8.5 x 11" sheet.
If you were using 12 x 12" paper, then the pieces could be 4 x 6" each. That would make them thinner and longer, and you'd get six per sheet without any waste. I haven't actually tried it, but it seems like it might work.
This blog post gives dimensions for two sizes of carrots, either 5 x 6" or 4 x 5" rather than the dimensions in my prior reply. {Crafting Life} Happy Easter!
You can use a toilet paper roll for these as well. Use red sticky tape on one end and them crimp. Cover with designer paper first. You can then staple the other end once it is filled, perhaps with colored staples.
I'm going to make little Easter Baskets for the table! They're little & will hold a little candy! You can see a picture at Dawns'StampinThoughts.com She is a SU demonstrator! (She has LOADS of goodies to make for everyday & tutorials GALORE! ) This little Easter Basket has a Punch Art Bunny on the front! It's ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE!
my SU lady, Nancy Powell, gave me permission to share this treat holder. We have a Monday night card grp and this was one of our projects. Very easy and can be used for any holiday - just change the punch art

Is it a basket? Can you show a side view? It is really cute
it is (2) 3-4 " scalloped squares that form a pouch. you score at 1 in from one edge on each piece. gluing at the folds, it is held together by the "ribbon" band. the ribbon is a 2x12 inch strip of paper and you use the word window punch at the top of each square to make the slot for the ribbon. a small piece of velcro up toward the opening to hold it closed. the scalloped square is from SU but a Spellbinders label would do the same in a square configuration. here is a photo of it flat.
