Baskets From Found Materials Week 10 – Fish Net and Other Stuff

Fish Net Basket

This week I used an old fish net that I found on the beach as the main framework for the basket.

Old Fish Net Found On The Beach

The net was made into a cylindrical shape and then string made from natural materials found on Arran, plus strands of beach rope, were woven randomly into it. Here are some of the materials I used.

Seaweed

Cordyline Leaves

Hair Moss

Rope Found on the Beach

The result was a hanging basket about 10 inches deep.
