The 3in1 Harvest basket is an simple, adaptable craft which can be used to make a free-standing decoration for your sideboard, a greetings card, or even a set of place-card holders for your Harvest table.
Age group: 2 years+
Table of Contents
You will need:
- A4 sheet thick brown paper or printer card
- Scraps of coloured paper or card (or perhaps pictures of fruit and vegetables from old magazines)
- Glue stick
- colouring pens/ felt tips
What to do:
- Cut out a selection of fruit and vegetables from the scraps of coloured paper or old magazines.
- * (see template) Put a line of glue along the top (folded) edge of the piece marked Back 1 and stick the handle and the vegetables along it so that they are protruding out from the top of the basket.
- Glue Back 2 over the top of the vegetables so that they are sandwiched between 2 pieces of brown card.
- Decorate the front and back of the basket with your pens and stand up.
To make place card holders:
Use the smaller sized basket template and make as many baskets as you will need for the guests at your table. Write each name on the handle or perhaps on a label tied to the handle with a ribbon.
