Paper Easter Baskets

Here are the last of the baskets. These are for my niece and nephew. Since my nephew is grown and married, I thought he deserved a manly basket, so I made his with some camouflage paper. He was in the Army, so it's perfect. Grown men like to have a special thought too right? I had the contents of his in a burlap pouch, but when I found out we weren't leaving to visit them for another day, I decided to make baskets instead. I used the burlap to line the inside of his basket.  I'm so glad Ann Marie, from Pajama Party Bloggers,shared the girly basket, I've now made two of them! Here are some directions. The manly basket is from a tutorial on Split Coast Stampers.

No, I didn't make this one. This is for our Great Niece. I found it on sale in Hobby Lobby and could not resist. Look at that lamb's cute little face and ears poking out of her hat:)
