In order to make it ready for craftsmen to make woven baskets, of course, we need the raw materials. There are 3 simple steps – harvesting, curving, and drying to get the complete raw materials for weaving wall decor baskets.

Step 1. Harvesting

Harvesting rattan is the initial step in the materials processing procedure. Typically, farmers or workers perform this labor-intensive task.

Step 2. Curving

The second step is to curve the rattan, turning its color from a pale green to the unique yellow found in a variety of rattan furniture and home decor.

Step 3. Drying

Rattan must be dried to eliminate excess moisture and render the material useable. This technique is performed outside in the equatorial sun and takes two or three days to finish.

Step 4. Weaving Wall Hanging Baskets

Firstly, craftsmen need to choose a design or standard pattern, which includes the size and shape of the piece. 

They start from the bottom base of a basket first. For round wall hanging baskets with flat bottoms, artisans lay out a series of stiff spokes to make the base. When the base is complete, the spokes are wet to soften them, compressed with pliers around the base’s circumference, and then bent upwards to form the sides. Finally, the best available reed is used for the hanging basket’s handle so that it is sturdy, durable, appealing, and somewhat smooth to the touch.

Step 5. Painting Baskets for Decor (if any)

If there are any customized specifications relating to the color of these decorative wall baskets, craftsmen will get baskets painted for you. However, you need to consider it well because the digital colors and the painting colors may be totally different. It may consequently turn out to be a big mistake for your wholesale baskets for decor orders.

Step 6. Finishing Decorative Wall Baskets

Cause these are handwoven baskets, excess-weaving materials are unavoidable. Therefore, there are workers manually cutting down these excess-weaving materials to bring finished products available.
