On Shavuot we welcome the first fruits of spring. Surprise someone special with this pretty little Shavuot basket.
Instructions:
1. Cover the outside of the cap with masking tape. Glue on two rows of trim to decorate it.
2. Glue macaroni letters to spell out Shavout on the outside of the cap.
3. Squeeze glue all over the inside of the cap. Cut a 6 inch (15 centimeter) piece of blue pipe cleaner. Stick the two ends of the pipe cleaner in the glue in the cap to form a handle for the cap basket.
4. Cut up bits of green yam. Put the yam bits in the glue basket to look like grass.
5. Squeeze glue over the yam grass. Put four different candy fruits and vegetables in the basket. Squeeze more glue over them to hold in place.
6. Tie a piece of ribbon in a bow around the basket handle.
