    Hi
    Thanx for ur response. It is very easy. I do not have that wire to show u. But I'll try to explain.
    • Take a waste Gasket ,matchsticks, & the wire(any basket making wire. If the breadth of the wire is more ur wrapping around the gasket looks good)
    • Take the gasket in ur left hand
    • Keep one match stick under-neath the rim of the gasket and hold it tight with ur middle finger of the lefthand & ur thumb on the rim of the gasket
    • Now take one end of the wire keep it with wrong side on to the gasket and hold it with ur thumb
    • Now holding the end put the wire around the match stick(make a loop) that is protruding above the gasket in anticlockwise direction bring back the wire on the wire which u are holding with ur thumb & go down in clockwise direction to put the wire around the stick(make a loop) which is protruding below the rim of the gasket
    • Now u've completed doing one eight around the stick
    • Take one more stick & hold it under neath in the same way & do first upper loop & then the lower one
    • In this way u cover whole gasket
    Now secure the ends. Thats it. Hope I've explained to ur satisfaction. still doubtfull feel free to ask.
    chitra.

    hi chitra,

    Your daughter has done a wonderful work. Nobody can guess that it is made out of gasket unless told. My wishes to her. Thanks for sharing.
