You'll Need:Cardboard milk cartonPoster board or card stock paperconstruction paperStaplerpotting soilgrass seedplastic wrapCut and decorate a half gallon Milk carton with construction paper or acrylic paint. Make a handle with poster board and a stapler. Fill your container with potting soil and sprinkle on an ample amount of grass seed - Rye seed is the fastest. Water and cover with plastic wrap, or put in a large baggie. Let the basket sit in the sun, wait only a few days for grass to sprout, remove baggies, and add plastic eggs filled with goodies, or other wrapped candies. These baskets last a VERY long time and can be planted in the garden after Easter.Kit's Tip:To avoid over watering, use a spray bottle to mist. The seeds must be kept moist but not soaked.
