Rolling laundry basket5/26/2023 ![]() This particular wire fencing is made up of rectangles so what you want to do is clip out the bottom section of every other rectangle… around the entire wire cage. Now you’re going to start clipping the very bottom sections of your wire fencing. ![]() At this point you’re just checking to make sure that the wire cage is the right size for your wood round. Now it’s time for the bottom! Go ahead and place your wooden round into the wire fence cage you’ve created… or is it more of a wire tube? Either way you get the picture. Go ahead and bend the wire over along the entire seam so that you have a round cage of wire fencing. Now all you have to do is fold those little pieces of wire back on themselves to create a seam! Squeeze them tight with your pair of pliers and your seam should be pretty dang strong. See the picture below? I cut the wire just past where the two edges meet so I have a bit of wire left over. Go ahead and cut one square box past where the two ends meet. Basically if you wrap the wire fencing all the way around the wood round you’ll reach a point where the fencing meets the end of the fencing. ![]() It’s a little confusing to read but fairly straight forward in real life. Make sure to over lap the ends just a bit since you’ll need a bit of that wire to fold over and make the seam. Ready to get started? Wrap your piece of wire fencing around the wood round so you know exactly where to cut. Once you’ve stained (or painted) that wood round make sure to let it dry because you’ll need it in step one (and no body has time to be playing around with wet stain all over their hands). Which is my fancy way of saying that if you want to stain (or paint) your wood round now is the time! I grabbed an old rag and stained my wood round with a dark walnut stain so that it would have a rustic warm wood feel! Prep Work: Okay y’all before we get started on all of the steps we need to do a little bit of prep work.
