I love that we can upcycle all sorts of materials into beautiful items, from handbags to purses, wallets to belts, as well as mats, coasters and more using this kit. At the moment, we are not that skilful, but hopefully, in the near future, we could use banana leaves to make a food container! I also remember my grandma used banana leaves to weave into a small basket. We do need to get it laminated and it would be waterproof to use. It does not require folding and sticking. ![]() We also made a placement mat as it is so simple to make. The kit does make it easier for us to weave, but it still took us a while to get the hang of it to put the paper through. There were times when we placed the papers in the wrong order or forgot to glue the papers etc. There were a few trial and error moments. Then I glued the sides and used bulldog clips to secure and allow it to dry itself. Then used a yellow strip of paper to cover around the borders. I left the strip of papers for both ends not glue. This is to tuck in the excess papers into the gaps and glue it. ![]() I mentioned my grandma’s useful container earlier and from that, I decided to make it to store the Chinese red packets.

I think I have inherited this love for crafts from her. For example, she would weave the old magazines into small containers to store keys, nutshells, name cards and many more. Her items didn’t always look beautiful as she would mismatch the papers or materials, but they were always so useful. She would turn a pile of junk into useful household items. My late grandma loved making things, especially upcycling clothing or old magazines. The side B measurement is for making the border for the weave pieces. ![]() If you are using A4 size paper, you should not have any waste paper left. Simply open the flip and insert the paper in to tear it. I love that it is so easy to use the tearer. The paper tearer has two side flips: A and B. The weaver unit and creaser come with a big pink wheel on the side for easy turning by little hands. You will need to supply your own coloured paper (or old magazines, posters, wrapping paper etc.) and glue sticks.
