  Step 1

  First of all you will need the following materials:

  * three 20x 25.5 cm (8 x 10 inch) wooden panels (in the tutorial mentioned above you will find that Plexiglas sheets were used which you can also do, but wood was more accessible to me)
  * three 47 x 72 cm (18½ x 28 inch) fabric pieces from you outer material and the same size three pieces from your lining material
  * three 10 x 27 cm ( 4 x 10 ½ inch) pieces
  * a curtain rod for hanging the baskets
