Make this cute basket for almost any occasion in just a matter of minutes!

The supplies you will need are:

• Cardstock or Patterned Paper
• Ruler
• Cutting Blade
• Adhesive
• Embellishments of your choice

Step 1:

• Cut your paper or cardstock into a square that is divisible by 3, i.e 6 x 6-inches, 9 x 9-inches, 12 x12-inches, etc.

Step 2:

• Score your paper so that you have a grid with 9 equal squares
• I have highlighted the score marks with pen so you can see them, but you will not want to do this

Step 3:

• You will cut only along the score marks that I have highlighted with a dashed line.
• At this point you will want to do any embellishing that requires a flat surface, such as glitter, painting, stamping, etc.

Step 4:

• Begin pulling up your sides and adhere them to the side flap. You will want them to overlap just slightly.

Step 5:

• Cut a strip of paper for your handle and adhere to the inside of your basket.

Step 6:

• Add any additional embellishments to your basket
• Fill with goodies!
