    Re: Cute Flower/Choclates Basket

    Here comes The procedure
    - Buy mesh(stainless steel) from hardware shops. Its just Rs.15/sq.ft.
    Cut it round with really big scissors. The end should be binded & tapped with hammer so that it wont hurt.

    - If u're a south indian, then u'll surely know "dabaraa" or the traditional saucer which used to go with the tumbler for coffee. or any round shaped small vessel should be kept in the mid & the end must be lifted up & while lifting so 4 or 5 fleets must be creased up to form the flower shape.

    - Then cut a long strip & tuck it into two to form the handle. Its flexible. the only drawback is that there r a lot of chances to get hurt. just be careful.

    - For safety & decorative purpose, I took out satin ribbon & stitched the corners. Even woollen thread can be used for the purpose. The handle is to be attached using thread itself. In this basket flowers can be kept or can be used as a goodie gift wrapping basket.

    - Its so easy. I saw it in a TV show & did. Oval or square shape can also be made using this material. Big sized ones can be kept for keeping vegetables or fruits on the table.

    - All the best.
