Introduction: Fruit Basket
Reuse, recycle, something new from something old.
Step 1: Materials
thirteen double size newspaper pages, scissors, a glue stick and a glue gun with glue sticks, some bobby pins or bag clips, paint (your choice) and a paint brush.
Step 2: From
the longest side fold one inch alongside each page over and over to make a paper stick.
Step 3: When
finish folding glue alongside.
Step 4: Arrange
seven newspaper sticks in a circle.
Step 5: Put
some clips or bobby pins to prevent them from moving.
Step 6: Take
one of every other newpaper stick and hold it upright.
Step 7: Take
one extra newspaper stick and wrap around the ones holding upright, glue the ends together and clip it for a while.
Step 8: Fold
down the ones upright and pick up the ones laying down, then wrap around another paper stick, glue and clip it as before. Do one more working in the same manner.
Step 9: Adorn
the basket with a fancy ending, folding the end of the paper stick to the left, press with your fingers to make a mark and release.
Step 10: Fold
now to the right and fold down where it was marked forming a triangle.
Step 11: Run
this part all the way in between the pockets formed.
Step 12: This
is how it looks once finished crossing the paper sticks.
Step 13: Glue
together three newspaper sticks to form the handle.
Step 14: Let
run the extremes in between the layers all the way trough.
Step 15: Hide
the end part at the bottom of the basket.
Step 16: Paint
your favorite color. Of course chocolate brown is my favorite.
