Cut two pieces of plastic mesh to measure 20cmx12cm

Sew the side walls onto these pieces of mesh.

Cut two pieces of plastic mesh to measure 18cm wide across the bottom, and 12 cm tall on two sides. On the fourth side measure 6 cm in from the side still staying 12 cm tall. Measure 10 cm up from that spot and mark the peak. Draw lines to connect the peak to the corners of the side walls. Cut along those lines to form the peak.

Sew the front and back pieces to these pieces of mesh.
