My basket is SUPER EASY and is a great foundation box to decorate however you want for just about any occasion!
Here is a quickie tutorial for you.
***********************************************************************************
Start with and 8x8 piece of cardstock. Score at 2 1/2" on all 4 sides. Cut on 2 of the opposite sides.


Next, I cut 4 sections of cardstock that were just shy of 2 1/2" x 3". I then ran all pieces through my wood grain cuttlebug embossing folder and then attached to the sides.
For the handle, cut 3 sections that are approximately 1/4" wide. Length really depends how long or short you want your handle to be. Attach top with a brand (just to hold in place), then just braid. You will have to manipulate the cardstock to conform to the shape you want. Its supposed to rip and bend etc - remember its that "rustic" or "weathered" look. (lol)
