First we make the decorative bunnies. You will need Raysin casting powder for this. Pour two bunny molds by mixing about three tablespoons of the powder with water until you have a creamy mixture. Pour the mixture into the molds and leave to harden for about 30 minutes. You can then carefully remove the bunnies from the mold. To achieve smooth edges, sand them lightly with sandpaper . For optimum results, leave the bunnies to dry completely for at least 12 hours.
Build the basic shape of the basketTake three craft blocks and glue them together on the long, narrow sides with a strong handicraft glue . This will create the basic shape of your basket. Leave the glue to dry for a few minutes before continuing.
Attach the bunniesAttach one of the cast bunnies to each end of this row of blocks. Make sure that the bunnies are firmly attached and that the glue adheres well.
Complete the side wallsTo complete your basket, glue two more craft blocks to each side of the bunnies. This stabilizes your basket and gives it the typical oval shape. Allow the entire structure to dry thoroughly so that it remains stable.
Decorate and fill creativelyNow you can decorate and fill your basket however you like. For example, fill it with wood wool and decorate it with decorative Easter eggs. There are no limits to your creativity!
