5. To make the front bar of the basket, cut out a strip of white cardboard 5 cm high and length according to the size of the bottom of the basket. On one side of the strip we make triangular cutouts for further fastening. We also cut out 2 strips from red paper, which will correspond in size to the prepared strip.

20. To decorate the basket, you also need to make holiday eggs. To do this you will need whole egg shells. Wash the shells, dry them and put them on skewers.Then we paint the shell with white paint using a sponge.

25. We do the same with the second shell. As a result, we get eggs with pictures in the form of chickens. We coat the shell with varnish. This way, the design and paint will look brighter and will not be damaged over time.
