Mini May Day Basket
Instructions for making a tiny May day basket out of a toilet tissue roll.

Materials Needed:

  • Toilet Tissue Roll
  • Tape
  • Construction Paper or Wallpaper Scraps
  • Markers or Paint
  • Pipe Cleaner
Instructions:
Cut the toilet tissue roll in half so you have 2 circles. Cover one opening with construction paper and tape securely in place. Cut a strip of construction paper or wallpaper to cover the outside of the toilet tissue roll. Use a hole punch and make 2 holes near the open hole of the toilet tissue roll. Make sure the holes are directly across from each other. Thread one end of the pipe cleaner into each hole. Fold the ends up and wrap around the pipe cleaner to make the handle. Fill your mini basket with real or home-made flowers and try to hang it on your neighbor's doorknob without getting caught!
