Materials Needed:

1 - Small gold flat basket
Jar lid or small round piece of styrofoam
Christmas floral pics of holly and pine cones.
Small piece of green christmas ribbon
Hot Glue

Instructions:

Use the lid or styrofoam as the foundation for gluing your floral pieces leaves to. Cut small sections of leaves and pinecones from your pics and hot glue to your foundation so that they will extend slightly beyond the outside of your basket, leaving the center of the foundation empty (to place your basket later). You may need to fill in gaps with single leaves cut from your pics.

Place your basket in the center of the foundation and hot glue into place.

Tie your ribbon into a bow and hot glue off center on one side or the other.

Fill with candy canes.
