Make Something Sunday: DIY Rope Trinket Bowls

Make Something Sunday: DIY Rope Trinket Bowls

Thank you for stopping by Make Something Sunday, where we post a new craft every Sunday from our favorite DIY bloggers! We want to inspire you to create at home with simple and fun crafts. Let's get started! 

This week we are featuring a craft from Caroline of Burkatron. Caroline is a DIY enthusiast from the UK and is a brand new mom! Today we will be making Caroline's DIY Rope Trinket BowlsUse these simple little trinket bowls to store smaller items like desk accessories or jewelry; or in your entryway to stash car keys. So go KonMari your place, and make these simple bowls to hold all of your items that spark joy! This craft is so easy. Like, SO EASY. To complete it you will need 10 feet (to make two bowls) of 10mm cotton rope, Gorilla Glue Gel, and scissors. If you are crafter, its possible that you already have some rope left from making macrame. If not, rope is very easy to find on Etsy, at craft stores, or even on Amazon. Gorilla Glue is great to have in your craft kit. It works on plastic, metal, fabric, stone, ceramic, paper, rubber and more.

Natural colored rope is very pretty and simple. If you need some color and are feeling ambitious, there are many tutorials on the internet on how to dye cord different colors. Or you can purchase dyed cord on Etsy! There are lots of ways to personalize these bowls. We think ombre dyed cord would look AMAZING.

We would love to see your take on this craft! Tag us on social media with the handles below and #makesomethingsunday and we’ll send you a code for $5 off at the shop (one per person)!
