con el sobrante de la botella vamos a cortar una tira para el asa de la canasta, esta tira mide 5cms de ancho por 27 cms de largo.

Ahora hay que pintar con pintura acrílica el interior y exterior de la canasta, he dejado el asa transparente pero si usted desea también la puede pintar.Now we have to paint with acrylic paint inside and outside of the basket, I made the handle transparent but if you want also be painted.

Ahora tenemos que cortar papel de seda para poner en el interior, he escogido tono celeste por dos razones, una es que el papel verde se ha terminado y otra que el celeste combina muy bien con el color que elegí para mi canasta.Now we have to cut tissue paper to put inside, I have chosen blue tone for two reasons, one is that the green paper has been completed, and the other blue paper combines very well with the color I chose for my basket.
Para cortar papel tipo zacate usted tiene que doblar el papel seda a la mitad y esa mitad a la mitad y otra vez a la mitad (ver foto) y hacer pequeños cortes horizontales,
To cut paper grass type you have to fold the tissue paper in half and that half in half and half again (see photo) and making small horizontal cuts,

cuando tenga suficiente cantidad de papel cortado va a estrujar y estirar los trozos de papel para esponjar (esa es la parte que más me gusta, es tan divertido !!)
when you have enough paper cut will squeeze and stretch pieces of paper to fluff (that's the part I like is so funny!)

al final tendrá un lío en su papel.at the end will have a mess on your paper.
Por ultimo hay que colocar el asa, he utilizado broches de metal para que tenga movimiento, así los chicos pueden bajar el asa cuando vayan a colocar los huevos y eso es todo,
Finally you can place the handle, I used metal brads to have movement, so the kids can go off the handle when placing the eggs and that's it,
