Basket of newspapers in the home

A basket of newspapers can be easily made at home from improvised means. In the process of creation, you will need a set of newspapers, glue, scissors and a piece of wire with a diameter of 2-3 mm². All this is available to every hostess, and with him

there should be no problems. In extreme cases, the last component can easily be replaced with a spoke or a stick for sushi.

Getting Started with a Model

Before you start, you need to decide on thewhat you want to get in the end. That is, what form should at the end receive a basket of newspapers. This can be a conventional container in the form of a cut-off cone upside down, and an ordinary cylinder, and any other that your soul desires. It is desirable that you have a ready copy in your hands - this will make it much easier to work.

Making workpieces

At the first stage, it is necessary to make blanks, withwhich then will be made a basket of newspapers - bars from the newspaper. To do this, it is cut into strips of a certain width and length. Then the wire or its substitute is taken, and then this workpiece is tightly wound on it. At the end of the strip, the edge is glued with glue and fixed. Then it must dry, after which the wire gets and

a new workpiece is made in the same way. This procedure is carried out until the required amount of starting material for the production of the product is obtained.

Bottom

The next step is to make a bottom.To do this, the newspaper twigs obtained are alternately stacked in staggered order. And they should be very tightly attached to each other. Stacking is done until the required size of the bottom is obtained. It is usually equal to the area of ​​the base of the container. For example, if a basket of newspapers is made in the form of an inverted truncated cone, then we must get its bottom one to one. If the length of one piece is not enough, then another is glued to it. After this part of the work is finished, you need to allow time to dry the workpiece.

Side walls and lid

At this stage, you need to carefully install the modelon the bottom obtained in the previous stage, so as not to damage it. Then the protruding paper rods are bent from the bottom in its shape. If any of them is short, then it is elongated in a way,

specified in the previous paragraph.Further, in staggered order, the blanks begin to stack one by one. This operation is performed until the required height is reached. Not necessarily it should be the same as the original capacity. Once this condition is met, you need to get a form and let the basket dry. In this case, you can make a cover in parallel. It is made similar to the base. Its dimensions should be the same as at the top of the received paper fake. Further all this is connected with the help of a screed. And, if the weaving of square baskets from newspapers is performed, then there should be 2-3 couplers (depending on its size). But for a round one and one will be enough. Then you need to give time again, so that the glue froze. At the final stage, the basket is covered with paint. For this purpose, it is best to use a can. After it has dried, the hack is ready, and it can be used for its intended purpose, for example, for storing things.

Conclusion

This review is devoted to how to make a basket of newspapers. A simplified algorithm for its manufacturing is given, practical recommendations are given.
