#1657. Papier Mache Easter Egg Basket

Make Easter egg papier mache baskets. This may be messy, but tons of fun!! Cover a blown up balloon with papier mache mixture. (Use half elmer's glue and half water) You will need at least 2 coats of this. When dry, paint in pastel, spring colors. Pop the balloon and remove. Then cut the top of the egg shaped balloon so it resembles a cracked egg with a jagged edge. Fill with Easter grass and goodies!!
