New Basket


I love making round baskets from paper. People often ask how I make the bottoms of round baskets. I actually use the same technique used in traditional basket weaving. I used jute cord to weave the bottom of the basket. The following view is of the outside of the basket.

Here is a view of the inside of the basket.


And the final completed basket. The basket is approximately 3-1/2" in diameter. I love working with small pieces :)
