How to Make Paper Basket Step by Step
- First, we need a yellow sheet of paper. Cut a square using this sheet of paper.
- We need a square of around 21cms.
- Now divide the square sheet into 9 equal portions horizontally and vertically.
- For this, you need to fold the square sheet into 3 portions horizontally and 3 portions vertically.
- Now you will see 9 square portions on the square.
- Now cut the middle portion on the first and the last horizontal row each.
- Keep the middle portion intact.
- Next, lift the middle portion and stick the two sides on the middle cut portion.
- Repeat the same step on the opposite side.
- That’s it now your basket is ready!
- Now take a yellow strip of paper around 2cms by 10cms and stick it along the two ends vertically.
- This is the handle of the basket.
- You can make even bigger or smaller sized baskets using the same technique.
- Try for yourself using different colours.
Enjoy!
