Supplies

What we need??

· Liquid glue (fevicol)

· Quilling Needle tool

· Decorative materials (optional)

· Shaping moulds

· Scissor

Step 1: Making Petal Shape

Kindly refer the above pictures for making petal shape.

We have to take 1 off-white strip and 1 blue strip to make one petal.

The blue strip is to be cut in 2 parts.

1 part should be stick with off-white and then make a roll. after that, fold it from middle and then stick it with the help of little glue.

Then use another part of blue strip and roll in on the petal to make it secure and stick it (use glue).

Kindly refer video

Step 2: Making Dome Shape


I used 3 blue strips for making a dome. To make a bigger size basket, use 5 / 7 even 9 strips,

For making dome shape, first make a tight coil, and secure it at the end point with glue.

make dome shape using fingers first, and then
use quilling mould for a proper dome shape

Refer the above pictures for information.

After making the dome, put some glue inside the dome, to secure it.

Step 3: Sticking Petals Around Dome

Now add glue for sticking petals around the dome, please
refer pic / video

I used 5 petals for my project, if you wanna make a bigger basket, you may need more number of petals .

You have to hold each petal for some time to stick it properly, so that it doesn’t fall down.

I leave it for 10 min and let it dry properly.

Kindly repeat step 4 for making another half

Step 5: Attaching Handle to Basket

add some glitters or decorating stones on it to make it beautiful. I also use a paper butterfly to decorate it.

Now stick this handle with the upper part of the basket

5 more petals and some decorative materials.I add some decorative stones on my basket petal to make it look more beautiful. Don't worry if glue is on your decorative material it will dry in sometime and will be transparent .
