Procedure: Basket Open newspaper. Use all pages that are all the same size and paper type. Fold large pieces down into about 1 strips (The amount depends on the size of the basket you want to make. To create a 4 x 4 x4 basket, use 12 strips.) Lay down all of your warp newspaper strips Cover the top half with a heavy book to keep in place as you add in the weft strips. Use a ruler to make sure that all sides are even. Once all of the weft is woven into the base, crease all warp and weft pieces at the edge where they overlap. Folding/ creasing now will benefit you later as you try to get the sides of the basket to stand up. Paperclips will help hold pieces in place as you work. Lastly, tuck edges in and take out all paperclips. Some pieces will fold under while others folder over. Decorate as desired. O O O O O O O O O 11
Procedure: Paper Mat Weaving Open newspaper. Use all pages that are all the same size and paper type. Fold large pieces down into about 1 strips or 2 strips. ( The size depends on how wide and thick you want your final weaving to be. The amount depends on the size of the weaving you want to make. To create a 6 x6 weaving, use 12 strips. You can tape strips together to make a larger piece.) Lay down all of your warp newspaper strips. Cover the top half with a heavy book to keep in place as you add in the weft strips. Leave a margin on all 4 sides that is twice the width of your newspaper strips. Paperclips will help hold pieces in place as you work. Lastly, tuck edges in and take out all paperclips. Some pieces will fold under while others folder over. Decorate as desired. O O O O O O O O 12
