Description: If you’re keen to try some paper basket making this spring, then you’ve come to the right place. Not only does this Crafts Channel tutorial demonstrate how to make beautiful DIY paper baskets, but it also shows you how to do it from just one square of paper. Yes, you read that correctly. Corinne Bradd’s paper basket making how-to turns one sheet of pretty patterned paper or thin cardstock into a springtime treat-holder as if by magic! The key to this delightful paper basket craft is in the folding. Follow Corinne’s step-by-step paper basket folding instructions, add a dab of glue and you’re away. Because this spring craft is so simple, it’s perfect to do with the kids and would make a brilliant Easter holiday activity to keep the little ones busy. Plus, once you’ve finished your paper basket making, you can fill the end product with all manner of sweet treats and other little gifts, such as handmade soaps or savoury snacks. Paper basket making is easily customisable for you and any crafty helpers too, as you can select any patterned paper or card to form the basis of your design. Get extra fancy with a decorated peg secured at the top, or even a flourish of pretty ribbon to really bring the style to your paper baskets.
