HOW TO MAKE THREAD BANGLES:
Every 90’s kid will remember making beautiful bracelets of wool for their friends on friendship’s day. Thread bangles is somewhat from the same period but regained its popularity in the recent times.
Take about five to six strands of silk threads on your hand. Make sure these strands of threads are not too long or it may become difficult to manage.
30 cm long strands are good enough for about any bangle. Now, start wrapping the silk thread strands around the bangle in the same direction multiple times and in an organized manner.
The wrapping is crucial and if it is wrapped in a haphazard manner, the final product will look ugly.
When you are done with the first batch of thread strands, tie a knot with the loose end of the silk threads and attach tip-wise with the fresh batch of thread strands and scissor of the remaining part.
Do remember to tie the knot very tightly since there is every possibility that the thread will slip away owing to how silky it is.
Having done that, you can continue with the wrapping process of the thread around the bangle.
When the next batch is over, you just have to repeat the knot process again.

Greeting cards are usually sent by mail in observance of a special day or event and can be divided into two general classifications: seasonal and everyday.
Simply brainstorm what you want to say, in this case “Happy Birthday,” and cut out the needed letters from a magazine.
Look for letters that are big enough to read easily and that come in colors you like.
Then, glue them onto the card using a glue stick.
Write a longer message on the inside of the card.

I always try to use recycled materials for crafting projects. Almost everyone have piles of papers (newspaper, brown paper, magazine paper etc.) around their houses. It’s about time we turned them into something useful!
Materials needed to make these paper baskets are:-
1) Paper (newspaper, brown paper, colored paper, magazine paper… any kind of paper)
2) Anti-cutter,
3) Scissor,
4) Glue
5) Scotch tape,
6) Cardboard or thick paper.
STEP 1: PAPER STRIPS
I used brown paper strips to make the baskets. At first, you have to cut the papers into strips of 1.5 inch width. Then fold them into half inch width and keep the length about 12 inches or more. Make as many as you can.
STEP 2: PAPER BASKET – 1
First, take 16 strips and divide them into half. Lay out 8 strips vertically and 8 strips horizontally as shown in the first picture of this step. Tighten the weave carefully to make sure that all the sides are even. Now build up the sides. Take a strip and go around the sides as shown in the picture. Keep about half to 1 inch of the strip to fold at the end. while folding the remaining part of the strip use scotch tape or glue to make sure they don’t come out. The square paper basket is ready!
STEP 3: PAPER BASKET – 2
You’ll need cardboard or thick paper to make a round figure (to make the base of the basket) and of course, paper strips. Take 8 paper strips. At first take 2 strips and glue them at the middle, which forms a cross. Now, do the same with the rest of the strips and make sure to glue them at the middle. After laying all the 8 strips together they should look like a star (as shown in the picture).
STEP 4: PAPER BASKET – 3
To make this basket you’ll need a round piece cut out from cardboard and strips of 0.5 cm width. Use super glue to stick 12 strips with the round cardboard plate. Now hold few strips up as shown in the picture. Take another strip and start weaving by circling around. After weaving the first strip you won’t need to hold the paper strips up as they will remain straight themselves. Keep weaving around the basket, but keep about half to 1 inch of the strips at the end. Fold the remaining parts of the strips inside and glue them. You can use extra papers to make borders to.
STEP 5: PAPER BASKET – 4
Take even number of strips to make this basket, it makes it easier. Lay out 4 strips (regular strips as I’ve shown at the first step) vertically and 4 strips horizontally. Tighten the weave carefully and make sure the strips are even. I’ve shown the folding lines in the first picture of this step. Fold up the strips of any one side and start weaving by placing one strip over the other (as shown in the second-1 picture of this step). This kind of weaving will form a corner as you can see in the second-2 picture.
STEP 6: PAPER BASKET – 5
To make this basket you can use all the remaining strips, so that they don’t get wasted. Stick all the remaining strips together vertically with glue or scotch tape. Cut out an oval shape from cardboard or thick paper. Now take the strip and glue it with the oval shaped cardboard plate (as shown in the picture). Start coiling up carefully and continue gluing the strip until it’s finish. When the strip comes to an end fold it inside and use glue to make sure it doesn’t come out.
These are the 5 easy and simple paper basket weaving. I’ll be crafting more paper baskets using different patterns very soon and try to add more details in the crafting.
I hope you enjoy making them. :)
