Well, thats all changed now.

Begin wrapping the rope around the box using hot glue to secure it every few inches.

In my case my exposed area is about 3 so my fabric strip was 6 1/2 wide.

Add a bead of hot glue along the top of the rope, working one side to a time.

Fold over one edge of the fabric 1/2 and press it against the hot glue.

Use a knife or boning tool to tuck the fabric tight against the rope.

Repeat with all sides of the box.

Use additional glue to secure the fabric to the inside of the box.

I plan to use my basket on higher shelves where the inside will not be seen.

It took me about 45 minutes to make this basket and less than $5 in supplies!

See how easy it is to make your own basket?

you’re free to totally do it too!
