I had some extra red packets so I decided to make hongbao gift baskets for Chinese New Year 2018. For each basket, I needed about 30 packets but I did not have enough for the yellow basket so I decorated it simply with some gold tape and flowers.
The little Mandarin Oranges were made from plastic netting - this was the first time I could get hold of some! They were really fun and so easy to do! If I can get more, I will make a tutorial on how to make the oranges. But really, it is not easy to find (at least for me, that is!).
This is lunar new year of the dog and the 2 red baskets are made from "dog" hongbaos. The yellow basket is for a good friend who just had another grandchild. :)
The baskets were quite easy to do and I think I make them again next Chinese New Year! :)
Happy Crafting Everyone! :)
