Instructions

Gather your supplies. Any small box with a lid should work. A thin shoe box would be perfect. We used a small closable box that a piece of electronic equipment had come in.

Trace the top smaller portion of your eggs onto your box, spacing them as desired depending on how many carrots you will use. Make this cute carrot garden diy Easter basket using plastic eggs, a box and some construction paper! You can fill the box and the carrot eggs with goodies.blank630x20

Cut the holes out using a craft knife, making sure to cut them a tiny amount smaller than the actual tracing. NOTE: You may want to do some test holes in another piece of cardboard so you will know what size they need to be. You want your eggs to sit down in snugly but not fall through.

Glue the lower, longer portion of the green eggs onto the full orange eggs as shown. This creates the carrot effect.Make this cute carrot garden diy Easter basket using plastic eggs, a box and some construction paper! You can fill the box and the carrot eggs with goodies.blank630x20
