You need 19 strips of paper (each 4-4.5 cm wide). Fold each strip in triplicate. From 2 of them, you make the basket handle as shown in the picture above and attach it with 2 clothespins on both ends. Then braid the basket of 12 (6 × 6) crosswise crossed strips and fasten them together with the hot glue gun. Halve two strips and use them to extend the remaining three strips. These serve to fix the basket shape. Shape the basket and attach the handle to it. The strip ends bend inwards and you already have your Easter basket ready.
