Origami Basket

tut 010
I found this wonderful design in the Origami Party Time! Kit by Florence Temko. It comes with instructions for 25 simple party projects including decorations, favors and table settings, along with 104 sheets of colourful origami paper in two sizes. Here a 21cm square folds into a 7.5cm x 7.5cm x 4cm basket. What I love is that the handle, a 20cm strip of ribbon (or paper) is folded right into the basket and it is very secure. You may find many uses for this basket, which can be made in any size by using a smaller or larger square sheet of paper.

The Origami Party Time! Kit is available in both my Canadian and USA aStore's and worldwide at tuttlepublishing.com. Tuttle has been publishing origami since 1948. You can check out their Spring 2011 catalog at Tuttle Publishing.
