Instructions:
1. Cut your paper so that it measures 15 x 18 cm (approximately 6 inches x 7 inches). Also cut a handle which measures 3 x 15 cm (approximately 1.18 cm x 3 inches).
2. Round the 4 corners of the basket with the corner squeeze.
3. Now using the stylus and a ruler, make a 4 cm (approximately 1.6 inch) crease on all 4 sides and fold. On each corner you will now see a creased square. On your two long sides, cut into these creases until you come to the horizontal crease. (You are making a total of 4 cuts and each is 4 cm long.) See picture 1 to the left.
4. Punch a small hole in each end of the handle and place the handle across the basket. Mark the positions of the holes on to the basket and punch also where the markings are at. Attach the handles to the basket using the brads.
5. Place a piece of double sided adhesive in each corner of the basket flaps (Picture 2) and remove the protective backing.
6. Adhere these 4 corner flaps diagonally to long sides of the basket. (Picture 3)
