Hi everyone and welcome to my channel, today I'll show you how to make beautiful rounded wicker baskets out of wash basins, utility buckets, plastic rattan, cord or rope and a secret ingredient from this video)))
Here is the formula to calculate the "tails" lengh you'll need for the basket:
L:W*(Lwp+Lbp):2:K=tail length
where
L - is the full stalk length
W - the rattan or rope width
Lwp - the circumference at the base widest part
Lbp - the circumference at the base bottom
K- number of stalks
Make sure to add 7-20 inches extra to make sure you have enough (as for me, 7 inches would be just fine!)

plastic rattan (I used about 100 yards of rattan for the smaller basket, my rattan was 5 mm wide, with wider one you will need less, make sure to calculate the amount as per the formula and add about 10 yards for the stalks):

Let me know if you find better options with big amounts of rattan available! Thanks a lot!
