Things you’ll need:
Easter basket
Tulle (pink, lavender, purple)
5/8″ Ribbon
1 1/2 ” Ribbon
Scissors
Hot glue gun and glue sticks
Self-Stick rosettes

Things to do:

  1. Measure your basket to determine how long your tutu tulle needs to be. Your tulle should be roughly double the height of your basket.
  2. Cut roughly 100 pieces of tulle.
  3. Measure the circumference of your basket. Cut a piece of ribbon to wrap around the basket.
  4. Next, we’re going to cover the ribbon with tulle. Fold your tulle piece in half, lay the ribbon across it, tuck the ends of the tulle up through the loop and pull it tight. Repeat this step until the ribbon is completely covered.

  6. Stick on your rosettes around the edge of the basket.
  7. Tie a large bow on the handle of the basket.
