A creative person can turn any unnecessary thing into a real masterpiece of art! The same goes for a regular plastic sour cream jar. Instead of throwing it in the trash, make it a useful and beautiful souvenir!

Such a basket will effectively decorate a souvenir shelf, and will also serve faithfully in storing women's little things - jewelry, hairpins, sewing accessories. You can put a present in a basket and give it to some girl, girl or woman for any occasion. And another idea for using baskets made from plastic cans and ribbons is decor festive table.

Materials:


  • Round sour cream jar (400-450 g);
  • Wide satin ribbon (2-2.5 cm wide) – 1.5 m;
  • Narrow satin ribbon (0.5-1 cm wide) for the handle – 72 cm;
  • A piece of braid or lace - its length is equal to the circumference of the jar;
  • A small piece of fabric;
  • Knife (stationery or regular kitchen knife);
  • Scissors;
  • Ruler;
  • Glue (any available one, but it’s more convenient to use hot glue);
  • A simple pencil or fabric chalk.

Making the basket:


1. Cut off the bottom of the can with a knife.

2. Apply glue to the inside of the bottom and apply it to the fabric piece. Cut out a circle along the contour of the bottom.

3. Apply glue to the outside of the bottom and apply it to the fabric section. We cut out a circle with a 1 cm edge so that on each side the fabric is 1 cm wider than the plastic bottom.

4. We fix a wide satin ribbon with glue from the inside of the jar and begin wrapping the walls. We wrap with a slight slope, overlapping, from bottom to top or top to bottom.

    It doesn’t have to be a jar of sour cream!
    Any one will do - acceptable size and shape.I also put a weight inside for stability.

    In this way, you can make beauty out of whatever is convenient. Take any jar, box, or even make it yourself. You can also use a plastic bottle. The main thing is accuracy.

    Children need to be introduced to this kind of creativity. I don’t know how it is now, but before there were labor lessons. What kind of things did we do there?
