New couch projects - coiling small baskets

Hallo,

   I picked up a new hobby - like I really needed another one.....

   I have been doing some experimenting with encaustic and natural fibers and had some ideas to use this coiling technique that is normally used to make baskets.

   I practiced with different stuff making some small baskets.

  The small green one is made with a paper coil, wrapped with some rough green jute.

  The other 3 are cotton coils - 1/4 inch ropes - wrapped with colored hemp twine. The hemp twines came from my paper crafting stash in my craft room at home. I had originally used some to decorate cards.

    All for today - Take Care

       Tera
