HOW TO MAKE A TRAVELING EASTER BASKET

Traveling Easter Baskets
First purchase cans that have a pop top lid.  I like using cans that had fruit cocktail or peaches in them.  There’s no lingering smell….plus I can make cobbler with the peaches or pack up the fruit cocktail to put in the kids lunch.

Turn the over and open the BOTTOM of the can.  I find it’s easier to use a hand held can opener VS an electric but it’s up to you.  Empty the contents, take off the label, wash and dry.

Remember when filling the can, fill it upside down (you can end or begin with the grass).  That way when the can is opened it will be right side up.

Dollar Tree offers a nice assortment of pastel color Easter Candy and toys.

It doesn’t look pretty, the label will cover it.

Now all you have to do is box it up and send it on it’s way!  Oh…I forgot to mention these are super light and shouldn’t cost hardly anything to ship.  Unless you decide to send something heavy that is.
