Another day. Another basket. This time using birch. Back when it was wintertime for the rest of the world (summertime here in Miami), I used birch in this rustic winter project and this valentine’s day card set. Now that spring is here, I’m giving birch another makeover.
Crafting a birch basket is way easy, but you will need to get your hands on some birch bark. If you happen to have birch trees around you, you could probably just go grab some of the fallen bark. Here in the middle of downtown Miami, we don’t have too many birch trees (shocker, right?) …but luckily Save-On Crafts has plenty.
You don’t need many supplies for this project!
{2} Chipboard (very thick cardstock could also work)
{3} craft glue (not pictured)
{1} Create a box with the chipboard. You can create any size you want, but I’ve provided a simple template below for the box that I created for this project.
{2} Cut chipboard pieces to fit the size of your box and then cover each piece with birch. You’ll adhere these pieces to the sides of the box and add a handle made in the same way.
When it’s all said and done, you’ll have created a rustic and very pretty birch basket. I filled mine with reindeer moss along with some handmade treat bags…keep scrolling and you’ll see how I put them together.
In each glassine envelope, I created a simple stamped flat card and tied a chocolate bunny to the front with baker’s twine.
These “A Tisket, A Tasket” tags from Minted were the perfect finishing touch to each envelope. I even had them customized with the Damask Love name…so official (like a ref with a whistle). I’ll be giving these away to friends who read the blog!
How’s that for another fun basket-making post! Tomorrow, I’ll be taking a break from my basket making duties to bring you another installment of “High Society” – see you there!

Thank you to Minted and Save-on-Crafts for providing a portion of the product used in today’s post.
LOVE!!!!!
Adore!!! BTW – I’ve been meaning to tell you that I love your new photo. So adorable!
I love that birch basket. You are so clever. Oh wait, have I said that recently?
I meant to get back yesterday to tell you how great your cupcake baskets were.
Can’t wait for your next edition of High Society.
Thanks for such a sweet note the other day.
How charming! I love the bits of moss peeking out from the basket!
How clever, Amber, to attach those chocolate bunnies to a card using colored twine! That birch basket is simply divine. Thanks for sharing the basket template.
Absolutely perfect in every way – thanks! I had no idea one could buy sheets of birch bark.
I absolutely love this! What a wonderful idea.
I love the shape and style of your basket here, Damask! And happy to see it is made using bark from dead trees! I have an Amazon book about making birch bark baskets. If people want to purchase it, they can get it on Amazon! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AYQ6LJI/ The book has detailed instructions and lots of pictures for making 2 different birch bark baskets. Rather than cut pieces like you do, my baskets are actually sewn together. 🙂
