The great thing about basket weaving is that the final product is not just a beautiful creation but you can boast that you did it yourself! It's time to get crafty and learn how to make a cattail basket. Just watch the video below:

We feel there might have been a cut off there at the end that was a wee bit abrupt. I, for one, was looking forward to seeing how the sides of the basket were made. Also, wow was the basket tied off and secured?

I'm sure that'll be in a future video, but in the meanwhile we can learn the basics here or better yet, figure out the last steps on our own! This DIY project is not just fun, but beneficial!
