Recycled Magazine Basket

In this DIY we will be making a little basket that can be used to store small bits and bobs like earings or paperclips. It can take long but it is very easy if you follow my step by step instructions.


  1. Take pages of your magazine my magazine was 29.5cm by 23 cm. Use about 7 pages.
  2. Fold the paper into 8 parts and cut them out.  
  3. Glue and fold each strip in half. Your strips should look like the image on the left. 
  4. Now you are going to take 1 strip and apply glue all over one side. Then roll it up. 
  5. Now apply glue to the next strip. Wrap it around the first, repeat this step with 24 strips. 
  6. Now you want to start having your strips slowly moving upwards to form the bowl shape. 
  7. Once you are done with all your strips you can use your bowl. It may take a little bit for your bowl to harden. 
Tip: You can make this bowl in different sizes making the ends steeper and the strips longer. Have fun playing with different combinations.
