When it comes to holding to ideas, I’m the worst! I can have everything planned out, start working on it, and then something gets in the way. Whatever the reason is, over the time I’ve abandoned so many projects. Some were good, others weren’t, and some are already in the garbage. Despite not being great at finishing what I start, I usually like to “collect” things, so I have a few unfinished projects stored away. And for what?? Turns out it’s for posts like this. This is going to turn out a different DIY post, so bear with me. Since I started them a long time ago, I don’t have the full process recorded. But, I’m going to guide you how to make it if you want to try out yourself. Rope Basket It has been a year since I found this idea on Pinterest. I needed a basket to put stuff in my office and instead of searching endlessly to find THE basket, I rather do it myself. I didn’t go too far with this craft because it was so boring. Basically, you glue rope all over the cardboard box. Simple right? Well, not for me. My hot glue gun was the worst. It was old and it never riched a high enough temperature to properly melt the glue. But now, I bought a new pistol *does the finger guns* and it’s amazing how much time I have before the glue cools down. I probably could go to the bathroom and be back in time to glue the rope. Now I’m pushing it, but I just want to tell you a nice glue gun can do wonders! Before I even start to glue the rope, I realized it was pointless to leave the flaps, so I cut them out. After covering the entire box with rope, I ruffly cut out 5 pieces of fabric a little bigger than the sides of the box and marked where I had to sew them. Then I just prayed it would work. I kept testing out but it was pure luck. I wanted to do a fabric bag because it’s much easier to clean up and also helps to hide any imperfections. And it’s done! I finished one project! Just had to wait a whole year, but that’s just a little detail, forget about it. I’m still indecisive if I should cover it...
