What You'll Need Materials Cornucopia basket Metallic spray paint Soft tape measure Fabric, such as silvered linen Straight pins Sewing machine Needle and thread Instructions Coat cornucopia lightly with spray paint; let dry. Cut out a fabric rectangle on the bias: The width should be 3 inches longer than the length of the cornucopia at its longest point, not including the upturned end; the length should be 1 inch longer than the circumference of the cornucopia's opening. Fold fabric, right side up, so short sides meet; pin together along that edge. Stitch where pinned, with 1/2-inch seam allowance. With doubled thread and running stitches, sew along 1 end; pull thread to cinch fabric closed, and stitch to secure. Turn liner right side out, and place liner in cornucopia; secure cinched end inside tip of basket with a few back stitches. Fold excess fabric over the rim. Turn edges under 1/2 inch, and pin. With doubled thread and slip stitches, sew hem, pulling thread through basket every couple of stitches to secure. Originally appeared: MARTHA STEWART
