  • Hi everyone and welcome to my channel, today I'll show you how to make beautiful rounded wicker baskets out of wash basins, utility buckets, plastic rattan, cord or rope and a secret ingredient from this video)))
    Here is the formula to calculate the "tails" lengh you'll need for the basket:
    L:W*(Lwp+Lbp):2:K=tail length
    where
    L - is the full stalk length
    W - the rattan or rope width
    Lwp - the circumference at the base widest part
    Lbp - the circumference at the base bottom
    K- number of stalks
    Make sure to add 7-20 inches extra to make sure you have enough (as for me, 7 inches would be just fine!)
    more DIY planters here: • DIY LARGE Garden Plant...
    plastic rattan (I used about 100 yards of rattan for the smaller basket, my rattan was 5 mm wide, with wider one you will need less, make sure to calculate the amount as per the formula and add about 10 yards for the stalks):
    amzn.to/3RWlSvq
    amzn.to/3vddeih
    amzn.to/3b7CmjD
    Let me know if you find better options with big amounts of rattan available! Thanks a lot!

      Maybe you can use a solder iron or what I use - is wood burning tool to burn holes in my pots for my orchids to get lots of air and drainage in plastic pots. I like to get clay but it’s not always easy to find the right ones. And sometimes I just have to repot and can’t wait months.

    Put a piece of masking tape where you want to drill on plastic or ceramic/glass. The reason it can’t grab is because it’s slippery.

    I'm pretty sure your drill bits were having trouble because you have them going backwards, which is only for the drill bit to "unscrew" out of the hole you've just made with it. It needs to be rotating to the right. (Clockwise)

  • @sheryldouras667
    @sheryldouras667 11 місяців тому

    Those baskets are just AMAZING!!! LOL, While watching this video, I started searching Amazon for some of that Rattan rope, AS IF I could even attempt making anything close to those baskets, LOL 🤦🏻‍♀️
    I just need you to come visit North Carolina & let me pay you to make them for me, Hahaha. (J/k). After paying for your plane tickets, hotel room, food & the basket supplies, THOSE would be some very expensive baskets, lol.
    For real tho, I’m gonna order some of that rope & try! Maybe not one as big as your’s to start w/, but once I’ve got it all figured out, I’ll work my way up to some larger ones!!!!
    Thank-you SO much for sharing your ideas & talent, it is truly appreciated!!! ❤️🪴
    If there’s anything from America you’d like to have, let me know & maybe I can get it & send it to you, as a Thank-You for the time, know.edge & energy you put into your videos!! ☺️
    I have NO IDEA how much those kinda baskets would cost in Russia, but over here, at least in NC, the larger ones would run anywhere from $50.00 to well over $100.00. I saw some large ones for $450.00+! 😳. I can’t believe people would pay that much, I sure couldn’t/wouldn’t!! That’s why I’m thankful for UA-camrs like you, who share their knowledge w/ all of us!!
    Take care & I hope you & your family are having a great weekend!!

    I have found that using a soldering iron is easier for me to make holes in plastic instead of using a drill. It can be a little stinky, so that is a con, but i just make sure to do it outside so there is plenty of ventilation. Thank you for your video. Youre very creative. Much ❤ from Nashville TN USA 🇺🇸
