How to make
Norwegian Christmas baskets
STEP 1)
Take two pieces of colored paper about 8x12 cm and fold them in half (where
the scissor is) before rounding the edge on the top. Cut several slots 2/3 of the way up
from the bottom on both halves.
 STEP 2)
Weave the
two sides together as shown. This isn't as difficult as it seems. Weave the strips through
each other by "opening" and closing" them.-
Take a green strip and "open" the first loop. Then pull a red strip through.
Now open the same red strip and pull the next green strip (closed) through.

STEP 3)
Make a handle and glue it to the insides of
the basket.

STEP 4)
Hang the basket on your Christmas tree and
fill it up with nuts and candy !
