How to make an Easter Woven Basket
What You Need:
- Patterned paper (I used paper sponsored by Prints here)
- Scissors
- Glue
- Clothing pegs
What To Do:
1. Cut paper into strips of 1.75 inches. I used 17 strips in this example. The larger the basket, the more strips you will need.
2. Fold all strips lengthwise into thirds.
3. Weave 6 x 6 strips to form the bottom of the basket. Glue corners to secure. Use clothing peg to help hold them in place.
4. Fold the rest of the strips vertically to form the walls of the basket.
5. Weave five strips around the walls.
6. Use glue to help secure the steps in place.
7. Trim just enough to cover up the top strip.
8. Bend the strips that are in the inner layer outwards and glue them on the top strip. Use a clothing peg to help secure.
9. Bend the rest of the strips inwards and glue them on the top strip.
10. Congratulations, you have your very own Easter paper woven basket!
Happy Easter, mamas!
