Half Round Hanging Baskets – free pattern and tutorial
|Here’s a FREE pattern and tutorial of how to make a Half Round Hanging Basket which will give you a whole new level of storage options.
You can give yourself additional space by lifting your storage solution up and off the counter with these cute hanging, half-round baskets. With a flat back and curved front, the basket lays flush against the wall, keeping it handy without encroaching into your space. The rope loop that ties onto the hanging dowel can be short or long to best fit your needs: hang it high and out of the way or keep it low and right at hand.
With lots of extra stabilization, the basket will stand up on its own. This means you could opt to leave off the hanging element entirely and use it as a standard countertop basket.
