I love the border on this basket. I wove pink flowers into the back and the front. This sweet little basket is the same pattern I wove last year for my then, two year old grand-daughter. This was her Easter basket last year.
This large, round basket has a solid wooden bottom and handles on the sides. I use this for my Halloween candy, it's great.
The pattern name on this basket is "glove" basket because it can be hung on a doorknob to hold gloves, keys, mail ect. when coming and going. I used a pineapple on the front.....did you know that the pineapple is the universal sign of welcome? It's also good luck!
I used a stencil to handpaint the pineapple on the front of this.
This beautiful basket is wonderful displayed on a peg, hook, or used as a wall basket. It can also be placed on the doorknob to hold mail etc. When using your baskets, think outside the box for some unusual ideas.
