Chicken Wire Laundry Basket
There are no instructions supplied here. So let’s make some up!
You’ll need:
- Circle of wood
- Wire
- 4 caster rollers, and appropriate washers and screws
- fabric
- rope
- tools and sewing equipment
Basket:
Use wire cutters to cut off every other horizontal section to make tabs as in photo. Fold over and wrap your wire around wooden circle as in photo. I would overlap the wire up the side a bit for strength. You could use the small cut-offs to secure the sides (just make sure they wont grab at the fabric)
Bag:
Cut a circle of thick/strong fabric same size as wood circle. Cut another the same size and length of wire sides – but taller enough to fold over for the rope drawstring. Sew pieces together and fish the rope through. voila!
