I would like to share with you a creative illustrated tutorial on how to DIY a small vase made from waste paper.
First cut the newspaper into 4 parts horizontally, roll it diagonally from one side into small paper sticks (about 3 mm in diameter), and then determine the number of main branches according to the size of the vase you want to weave (usually 11, 13, 15 Branch) Thread the thin wire into the main branch, and tie it into a tic-tac-toe shape in groups of 3. They should press each other, and then you can knit around the tic-tac-toe. After 3 or 4 turns, all the main branches can be evenly separated. Continue braiding until the bottom size requirement is reached, then you can stand the main branch up, continue braiding, and when braiding reaches the closing point, cut off the excess and clamp it to the inside. You can spray it in various colors if you like.
Divide a newspaper into 4 parts horizontally, roll them diagonally from one side, and adjust to keep the thickness even.
Use glue to secure the end. After making N paper rolls in this way, you can start compilation.
Thread the center of the 7 paper rolls through the iron wire (one of them can pass through half the iron wire), and position it crosswise, starting from the paper roll with half the iron wire Winding braid.
After 4 weeks of braiding, separate the paper rolls evenly and continue to braid a total of 13 main branches.
Weave up and down alternately around it. When the bottom diameter of the container is completed, the main branches can be erected.
Adjust the shape of the main branch according to your own preferences
Cut off the excess themes, and be sure to adjust the shape frequently when knitting, otherwise it will become crooked.
Clamp and trim the remaining main branches inside and outside, and you’re done!?
