It’s almost time again to get ready for Back to School!!! My kids are getting so excited!!! They can’t wait to see who they get for their teachers. I have mixed feelings, I’m ready for school to start yet… I’m not. Either way it will be starting soon. So I made this cute little set to get the year started off right! I love this little apple basket!! So you can understand the size better, it will hold one large apple.
I made the handle out of a 2 clothes hanger. I took one metal one and used just the bottom straight part cutting it with wire cutters. Then I took another hanger that has the cardboard tube and cut off a 3 inch piece with kitchen shears. The shears seemed to do the best job. Then it was all bending and maneuvering it in to some holes I punched on the side. Make sure BEFORE you start bending, you put the cardboard tube on, or you will never get it on…don’t ask how I know…hee hee.
Here are the card I made to go along with my basket. The apple is cut from my Cricut “Plantin Schoolbook” Cartridge. I used CTMH’s Cranberry, Chocolate, Bamboo, Olive paper. I also used the Silhouette paper pack. I really am loving this apple!!!
Here is the post it note and notepad holder I made. I just got my notebook punch and I LOVE it!!!! I used CTMH’s “Classmate Alphabet” set to make the writing tablet on the olive paper.
Here is the inside…
Thanks for stopping by…have a wonderful day!!!
