Simple Card Stock Basket

You have seen many of these baskets online. Usually they come with lots of instructions about cutting squares, then cutting them into triangles, etc. I decided i would make a svg file to cut out the squares and triangles for you.  You use two different papers. 




Because it is difficult to cut a 12x12 paper on the cricut, you still need to make that part by hand. Using your score board, score your 12 by paper every 4 inches, both vertically and horizontally. you will have 9 squares on your paper. Fold on score lines. Then in each corner, score at 45 degrees, then fold.



Glue squares into each square on your paper, front and back. You don't need one in the middle. Glue triangles onto each triangle. Then punch hold in each corner of triangle. Thread ribbon through the holes and tighten, tie in bow. Or use a o ring to close basket by threading through holes. Then tie on small ribbons around ring, between holes. I added embellishments from my paper pack for a cute finished product.

I don't know if I did a good job explaining.Tutorial on how to make box by hand
