Paper Project: May Baskets

 I have been playing with paper.   The weather has been cloudy/rainy and cool...so time is best spent doing something inside.  I made good use of my die cutter to cut out everything!


Pink parts of May Baskets


They are pretty little pig May baskets.  I finished them last night...they just need some candy and they will be all set to go on May Day! 

Perhaps this is the reminder you need to make a basket or two.  I made 25.  I will take some into my Mom at Assisted Living and she can share some with the residents there. They should certainly make someone smile!

Those are adorable May baskets. I can imagine how tickled the folks at your mom’s residence will be. I am working on 1 fabric May basket to take to guild for a swap next month. Not nearly as cute as the paper piggies!!

Those are the cutest! I had to look up what a die cutting machine is. It said they can cut fabric too! Amazing. Your Mom and her neighbors are going to love those may baskets!
