Our master class will help you make a cute craft out of threads - a basket for small items.

It's easy to find something on your bedside table sometimes“get along” with such different objects as a glass of water, a framed photograph, a book, headphones, a mobile phone, tubes and bottles, hairpins... The list can go on and on. After all, each person has their own set of the minimum necessary before going to bed. One thing is clear - a multitude of different objects looks like chaos. This means that some of the objects need to be removed from sight, and the rest must be put in order. We suggest creating a basic storage system with your own hands - a basket woven from threads. You can put such a basket on your bedside table and store tubes of creams that you use at night in it, or use it to store hairpins and elastic bands and other small items.According to our master class we get a nice hand-made article made of threads - a basket for little things .. Photo # 1To work you will need:

  • thick cardboard,
  • colored or wrapping paper,
  • toothpicks,
  • yarn,
  • beads are large,
  • beads are small,
  • needle sewing thick,
  • scissors,
  • PVA glue,
  • pencil simple.

I used a round box as the basis for the craft.But, having already started working, I realized that the top edge of the box only gets in my way. Therefore, I advise you to take just thick cardboard, cut out 2 circles from it and glue them together. Choose the diameter of the circles depending on what size basket you want to get. And I thicken the bottom of my box by gluing another layer of thick cardboard.According to our master class we get a nice hand-made article made of threads - a basket for little things .. Photo # 2We also decorate the bottom from the inside.For this, you can use an old postcard, wrapping paper or just colored paper. And to make the basket harmonious in everything, we select the color in accordance with the intended overall color scheme.According to our master class we get a nice hand-made article made of threads - a basket for little things .. Photo №3Now you need to stick it around the entire perimeter of the circletoothpicks at a distance of 1 cm from each other. To do this, pierce the holes with a needle, dip the tip of the toothpick in glue and screw it into the prepared hole. Try to make sure that the toothpicks stand strictly vertically, without tilting.According to our master class we get a nice hand-made article made of threads - a basket for little things ..

This is the fence I got.According to our master class, we get a nice piece made of threads - a basket for little things .. Photo # 5We will weave toothpicks with a thread of yarn,starting from the very bottom. Real baskets are woven from vines in the same way. It is better to take a thread of medium thickness, since a very thick thread will be too heavy for our craft, and a thin thread will take much longer to weave. Using a toothpick or your fingers, press the weaving to the bottom of the product.According to our master class we get a nice hand-made article made of threads - a basket for little things .. Photo №6There is no need to pull the thread too tightly, so that the toothpicks do not lean towards the center. And so, patiently going through row after row, we weave, carefully watching so as not to mix up the weaving process.According to our master class, we get a nice hand-made article made of threads - a basket for little things ..

I alternated white and brownish beads.According to our master class, we get a nice piece made of threads - a basket for little things ..

Fix the ends of the threads together and secure them to something so that it is convenient to braid.According to our master class we get a nice hand-made article made of threads - a basket for little things ..
