Watch my online tutorial.
Inflate a medium size beach ball.
Use painter's tape and divide up 12 stripes on the beach ball.
Paint alternating red and cream stripes to create a new pattern.
Take a bed riser or flower pot and wrap rope all around the outside while hot gluing rope as you go to the side.
Measure out 2 rope lengths that proportionally wrap around the ball and top of basket.
Tie a rope around the circumference of ball and then tie where the two long ropes around ball intersect on the rope around circumference. Space out evenly into quarters so that 4 rope lengths hang loose.
If you are using a bed riser, screw in 4 screws on the top of each corner of bed riser leaving enough room to tie rope around screw.
Tie the four loose rope lengths around screw tightly to each corner screws.
Tighten screws after tying each knot.
Tie a another rope to top rope intersection and hang balloon from a ceiling hook. Then take extra rope and scallop evenly around the circumference rope.
Make cute little sand bags by taking white cloth, gather up pieces to look like a bag and tie them up with string. Lastly, hot glue little bags to the side of basket.
