Don't ***make*** me come up there and fix it 10 minutes, Janie!!!

LOL...

All you need is a big pair of "channel locks"... Look for a big nut under the sink that is going to have a rubber washer between it and the sink... It's right over the "tailpiece" (pipe that goes down to the trap)... The trap is the "S" shaped thing but sideways...

Try tightening that nut and see if that fixes the problem...

If not then go back to what I posted earlier...

BTW, the "plumbers putty" goes between the the basket and the sink on the top part of the sink... Remember making worms with clay when you were a kid??? That's what you do with the plumbers putty... You make a worm and wrap it around the entire bottom side of the basket before putting the basket back thru the hole in the sink... Then you screw the tail piece (pipe with threads on top) into the basket from underneath.... You may have to put something heavy on the basket to keep it in place as you get tailpiece threaded... The tailpiece will only screw into the basket but so far... That's fine... The you put the washer on the tailpiece so that it will make contact with the underside of the sink and then you put the big nut on and tighten it so that the washer starts to flatten out... That means you are sealed on both sides... The reinstall the trap.... Some traps are chrome and others are white plastic... Doesn't much matter... Be sure to tighten all the big nuts on the trap or it will leak...

You're done!!!

Now get them dirty dishes washed...
