"The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul. No matter our talents, education, backgrounds, or abilities, we each have an inherent wish to create something that did not exist before." President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Plastic Basket weaving with Ribbon

I have been looking for the perfect basket for all of my Mini Chipboard Albums and have had no luck for quite some time now. They were either not my style or defiantly not what I wanted to spend. I had some good luck at the DI the other day when I found this plastic crate for $0.50 and brought it home with me


I took some ribbon I already had in my stash and did this with it!!



I just weaved it in and out and then tied knots at the end. I am in love with this!

Too Cute! I saw some of these yesterday at Goodwill! I didn't pick them up, now I'm going back to get them. I hope they're still there.

This is just what I needed! I have an ugly crate that's goes in my classroom. My goal for this year was to make my classroom more homey. Perfect!
