That looks brilliant how sturdy is it? x

Kel

So far it seems pretty sturdy. The strips are 8 layers thick, and paper can be quite strong when rolled or folded. I believe the key is to keep the weaving quite tight, which I got a little obsessed about. Smaller baskets would be sturdier and the last tutorial link uses thicker strips too. -K

Wow, I must have a look at those tutorials. If you wanted it sturdier then a few coats of varnish might help maybe? I'd want to put books, paper, magazines...anything paper related in it I think.

I love this! Re-cycling at its cute, practical, best.
(I'd probably store yarn stash in it) tfs

Very fun project; might have to try that myself.
