I can not for the life of me remember where I originally got this idea from. I will keep looking and if I find it, I will link back to her.
You start with a bowl, a crocheted doily (Dollar Tree $1), and some glue (she used fabric stiffener but I didn't have any and I wanted to make do with what I had on hand).
I first poured some glue into a bowl and watered it down just a bit. I then soaked the doily in the glue for a few minutes. 
Then turn your bowl upside down and place the doily onto the outer part of the bowl.
Let sit for 24 hours or overnight to dry. Then carefully pull off the bowl, and you have this....
An easy peasy easter basket. I filled with some Spanish moss and a few of our DIY glitter eggs.

This is so easy even I could do it! Thanks...I am going to try it! Do you think you could use Modge Podge instead of glue?
The perfect little basket! =O)
