Nesting Rope Baskets
Use this simple, no-sew technique to make different-sized baskets, perfect for organizing! They are great for holding craft supplies, kitchen utensils, or even using as decorative planters.

What You'll Need:

Let's Get Started

STEP 1:

A)    Cut the end of the rope to make a clean edge. Hot glue the end of the rope to the bottom center of a plastic container. Note: Plastic containers work best, as the glue will pop off easily.

STEP 2:

A)    Begin coiling the rope around the central starting point, hot gluing as you go.

STEP 3:

A)    Completely cover the bottom of the container. Tip: Once it’s covered, pop off the rope so it doesn’t stick to the container.

STEP 4:

A)    Continue wrapping the rope around the side of the container, gluing as you wrap.

B)    Continue wrapping until you reach the top.

STEP 5:

A)    When you reach the top, cut the rope.

B)    Glue the loose end in place.

STEP 6:

A)    Remove the rope basket from the bucket.

B)    Paint a section of the basket. Let dry. Repeat this process to create different-sized baskets!
