Basket for flowers from balls: a master class

For work we need:

Let's proceed:

  1. Using a pump, blow one SHDM, and then twist on its body three identical round bubbles and turn them into a ring. In the same way, we twist five more triples of bubbles and, as a result, we should have six beam designs. The average bubbles of each three are twisted into locks and the base for the basket is ready.
  2. We inflate half the length of one more SHDM and on the edge we twist a small round bubble. The resulting bubble is clamped in one of the locks on the base and the whole body of the ball is wrapped around this lock. Further on the body of the ball we twist two more bubbles, the last of which also turns into the lock. The same operation is done with five more balls, filling the remaining locks on the base. As a result, we should get a base with knitting needles for the basis of further weaving.
  3. For the convenience of further work, turn our baskets bottom up. We inflate the next SHDM and also at one end we turn off the round bubble. Acting on the same principle, we pass the received ball into the lock on the spoke and wrap it around. Then alternately we twist not round but oblong bubbles and fix them around the locks on the spokes. The last, the sixth vial, we connect with the first, the remains of the material are cut off, and the first bubble is screwed into the lock.
  4. We turn the basket back, inflate the next SHDM and continue the weaving according to the same principle. The resulting lock at the end of the tier can be hidden inside the basket.
  5. It is important to plan the location of the tiered locks so that each of them is on a separate spoke. If the tiered locks are on the same spoke, this deforms the shape of the basket and it does not turn out to be symmetrical. Also do not forget about what form of the basket you expect to receive. If it should be extended to the top, then it is necessary to increase the length of the bubbles with each tier. To narrow the shape of the basket, the length of the bubbles is reduced each time, and to obtain even walls - the bubbles should be the same.
  6. When all the tiers are ready, we spin the bubbles on the spokes and turn them into locks. If you want to make a basket with a handle, it can be tied to locks on opposite sides in the form of a separately inflated ball. And so, the basket of balls, which, as it turns out, is not difficult to do by one's own hands, is ready!

And you can fill it with flowers, also made from balls .
