May Day Cone Basket
Follow these directions and learn how to make a cone-shaped May Day basket you can hang on a neighbor's door knob.

Materials Needed:

  • Construction Paper
  • Glue or Tape
Instructions:
Cut a triangle shape out of bright colored construction paper. Make the point flat and the long edge rounded (figure 1). Roll the triangle into a cone and glue or tape the 2 sides together (figure 2).


Cut a strip of construction paper that is approximately 12 inches by 2 inches. Glue or tape it onto the top of your cone to make a handle (figure 3). Fill your cone basket with real or home-made flowers and try to hang it on your neighbor's doorknob without getting caught!
