Watch a short video tutorial on preparation tubules from newspapers.

Before you start painting the tubes need to prepare the workplace.Take a small tray and lay on him polyethylene.On it you will be able to dry the "vine" after painting.Prepare stain and wear gloves on his hands.

can work directly with 10 tubes. Dip them into the stain for 3-5 seconds.Then lower the other end.Each tube after the ink must be carefully put on a tray, leaving some space between the "vines".When the whole tray is full, then it is possible to spread the tube top "woodpile".

to completely dry enough to leave a tray of tubes for 12 hours.It is better to avoid additional heat sources, as a sharp drying can make tube parched, they will lose their plasticity.

To create a wicker basket from the newspaper tubes square shape should begin with the formation of a bottom in the form of a square.

So, first you need to take a strip of cardboard, be borne in mind that the bottom of the basket will be slightly less than the size of the board.Then fold it in half.Use the hole punch to make holes in the cardboard small, the distance between which should be no more than 2 cm. The holes must be inserted long "working the vine."

Now we can start weaving the bottom of the basket.Elongated tube is necessary to weave close to the cardboard paper.When braiding reaches the edge, then you need to make a turn, and produce weaving in the opposite direction.To "work the vine" is not an end, it is necessary to constantly lengthen - dokleivat newspaper tube.Under special control is necessary to keep the size of the bottom, as its width can be narrowed.Thus, the square bottom creates the desired size.

Visually, this process, see the following video.

Then you can move on to the side walls of the weaving baskets.Already there are two vines frame the future, so you need to make two more walls.To do this, you need to take a long newspaper tube, bend it in half and stick the two ends in the bottom of the basket.Tails that seem to back of the bottom, it is necessary to bend upward and secure.Thus, a stable framework.Depending on the desired height of the basket is necessary to create a "working the vine" size.

For reliable fixing of the basket wall is necessary to take a heavy object shape future product and put in the center.Next to it with a rubber band secures the frame tubes.For a square basket it is very important to create a straight edge.When wickerwork other form can do without the sample inside.

Weave need to start from the bottom of the basket.We need to take a long tube and weave it into one of the sides, with the alternate position of the vertical tubes, front and back spending.In this way, you need to create all the walls.

At the beginning of the end of the weaving remains "working the vines," in the future it will be used as one of the elements of the framework.It allows you to create an odd number of vertical tubes.After each series of the free end need to braid.The process of weaving the sidewalls takes place in a circle until you get the desired size of the basket.

An easy way to weave wall pattern "rope", see the video below.

To create a rectangular basket must begin with a rectangular bottom weave.You need to create a pattern of cardboard for the bottom of the basket.Then place it on the edge of the finished tube and to fix the design with the help of pegs.Next, the substrate must be put across the paper rolls, with each in turn "vine" should go above or below the ground, keeping the necessary weave density.At the time of the construction must be covered with another newspaper tube and fix the clothespins.The bottom of the comb will remember, so you must continue to weave the new tube by adhering staggered to create the required density of the bottoms.When the bottom will acquire the necessary density, the pegs can be removed, because it will already hold the shape of their own.The width of the bottom is completely dependent on the size of the pattern.At the bottom of the netting will remain so-called rays, which will later be used as a base frame.Already they can be used to create a side wall of the carcass.

Round basket is the most difficult to make, because the cost to make every effort toforming a round bottom.The easiest way is considered a "rope."We must take six tubes and connect them to each other using clothespins to create a single plane.Then this step is repeated.Ready to put the plane crosswise.

further need "Vine", which will be used for further weaving products.Her need to bend in half and place the fork near the beam form a "cross".On the working tube bends need to bend.It is necessary to pass the top down and the bottom - up, until you reach another ray of six tubes.The bends is arranged at an angle of 90 degrees, and keep changing the lower and upper part of the "vine".This action must produce four times.The result is a ring that is at once secure with pegs.

After passing three laps, you need to take six pairs of tubes and push for the formation of a flat surface.Next weaving straw work must be done every two tubes.And do three laps again.It is necessary to produce action on breeding pairs.Do you need to weave to create the required size of the base.The bottom basket will remind round the sun, which consists of a ray 24.

Laundry basket angular forms will help to save space in the bathroom, so is in great demand in small spaces.

When weaving corner laundry baskets from newspaper tubes should adhere to certain rules because of the shape of the product:

• For racks of the basket is better to use the tube from a sheet of paper for the printer or take the sheetsfrom the magazine.Soft rolls of paper can not hold the entire structure.
• To create a smooth floor is necessary to put it in the design of the goods basket, with special attention should be paid to the corners.
• Before painting the product is necessary to calculate the amount of acrylic varnish, or have dokrashivat a different color, and the result has to be imperfect.

basket When the desired height is ready, you need to hide the ends of the tubes, which form the frame, and do not forget to lock and hide the working tube.This will require a long needle.It is necessary to stick into the hole near the rack in the middle of the 3 series.Here it will be necessary to hide the tip.

Action must be repeated with a needle in the other direction as the 3-series, put on her rack and push down.Thus, each column will bend and tighten.When finished, the product is ready region.

In each hole, which hit counter, it is necessary to smear glue and allow time to dry.Thereafter, using scissors cut edge protruding all tubes.All sections must be carefully hidden between newspaper tubes.

A simpler version of the registration edge, see the following video.

shopping cart can be supplemented with a cover that can be fixed in a wall or weave separately.Using the weaving method bottoms can be produced and a cover.For the finished product, it is desirable to varnish.A perfect solution is just acrylic paint, because it is odorless and dries quickly.

a work of art can be called a basket, decorated with a pattern using the decoupage technique.To fix pattern also applies varnish.

you yourself choose the style and color of the basket.For decoration you can use ribbons, beads and other decorative elements.For practicality you can make a separate liner of calico.
