I remember how to make tissue paper baskets, however the sheets of tissue today are smaller or something, and my May Baskets are not any where near the lengthI remember as a child! Here's the how to: take a piece of tissue paper, fold from a corner aligning with the other side to make a large triangle. Cut off the extra length to use for your handle. Continue folding the triangle until about two inches wide. At the bottom point and two inches from the point, make cut as far as you dare without cutting off, from the other side do the same about a half inch between cuts. Continue cutting into the sides from opposite sides until you are about two inches from the top. Unfold carefully, putting a candy (weight) in the bottom and attatching a handle made from the leftover tissue.
