In this video, I'm making a basket out of my favorite paper towels again :)

So, during the work I tried to do it differently — I want to share my experience :)

At the beginning of the video I show how to weave braids for the side walls.

I wet the towels and twisted them, joining them with PVA glue.

I also increased the length.

I showed this method in the video because it was the most successful.

I made the bottom of dry braided tubes and connected with hot glue.

This technique is terribly inconvenient, so the bottom turned out not quite smooth.

There I also noticed that the braids also looked worse.

If you let the braid dry a bit, you can use hot glue.

But it is better to use PVA glue.

This technique to make the basket takes more time, but having a support in the form of a box, it is easier, because braids fall on one another and the design does not fall apart.

Before painting the outer and the inner sides, it is better to cover it with PVA glue.

I didn't do it because I was painting with a thick layer of paint.

I used acrylic paints for interior and exterior use.

From my experience, I can say that after drying, painted wipes become very hard.

Well, here I used my fishstars, which I did in the previous video.

Good luck!
