So I saw this tutorial the other day ([link]) and just had to try it out! We have so many old magazines around here, I figured that if I could use up even one of them making something crafty, that it would be worth the time I put into it.

Well, seven hours later, this is what I got. It took sooo long to fold and glue and weave all the pieces together, but I rather like how it turned out. No, it's not perfect. To be honest, I'd never weaved anything before I tried this out, so I think that for a first attempt, this was pretty okay.

I decided to paint the outside of the basket, and put the first coat on today. I look forward to trying out more magazine crafts soon! :heart:

Lolz. :P
It looks pretty bad, actually, especially compared to some of the awesome weaving other deviants do, but once it's painted I suspect a lot of the aesthetic mistakes will be well hidden.
Thanks, though! :D

You are welcome. Maybe it looks worse in person. In the photo, it's quite vibrant.
