Putting all your eggs in one basket is a bad idea, of course, but put all these chicks in a basket, and you've got one very cute centerpiece.
| Prep Time: Under 1 hour | |
| What you need: | |
| Kitchen shears
Small basket Yellow work glove Craft glue Scissors Felt Small googly eyes Easter grass Ribbon or flat braid (optional) | |
| Seasons: Easter | |
| Materials: fabric | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. | Use the kitchen shears to cut a whole in the bottom of your basket that's big enough for your child to fit her hand through. |
| 2. | Stick the work glove up through the hole, leaving the cuff out. |
| 3. | Secure the cuff to the bottom with craft glue. |
| 4. | Tuck the thumb of the glove into the basket and glue it out of sight. |
| 5. | Cut four small triangular beaks out of the orange felt and four small combs out of the yellow felt. |
| 6. | Glue the combs to the tops of each gloved finger; glue the beaks -- slightly curved -- onto each "face." |
| 7. | Complete each face by gluing on a pair of googly eyes. |
| 8. | Add a small handful of Easter grass around the chicks in the basket. |
Variations
If desired, decorate the handle by wrapping it with pretty
ribbon or braid.
