Make "Baskets" Out of Cardboard Boxes

Necessity is the mother of invention, as my mom used to say. I couldn't find the right size baskets to fit on a couple of shelves in my daughter's room, so I covered a wine box and a shoe(boot)box with 4 ply jute twine.
Enjoyed the project?

Dollar tree roping, has 2 color choices. I have found, because the rope is thicker then jute? It covers faster with the same amount of hot glue. It looks more high end too. As well sturdier. Less yardage as a a result of added thickness. Take a look 😉

I went one step further and made my own rope out of twisted daylily leaves.
