At the bottom of the basket, put the foam, after applying a few drops of glue on it. This will fix the foundation.

Poke each toy with a wooden skewer below (where the tail is located). To keep the figure tighter, glue the tip of the stick with glue.

From the brown paper (or floral grid), cut two squares with side sizes up to ten centimeters, pierce them in the center with a skewer and put on each stick with a figure. Using your fingers to pick up paper near the puncture site, form a frill around the toy. Fix it with tape for the skewer. Around each soft figure you get a magnificent "skirt".

Lubricate the bottom edge of each stick with glue and insert into the foam base. Start filling the basket from the center to the edges. The voids around the toys can be filled with twigs of artificial plants, and even better - with sticks of candy.

Glue small artificial flowers or bows on the walls of the container on the outside. If possible - get iridescent rhinestones, beads, buttons.
