Hmm. Where should I begin?
Yesterday was a busy day. I added four baskets to our shop: two Trick or Treat Totes, a Small Egg Basket, and a Small Table Basket. Three of them are still available and ready to ship. Which one is your favorite?

You may have noticed that the inventory of handmade baskets in our shop has been slim lately. We're making new baskets every day, but they are selling faster than we can make them. Many of them have sold within the first five minutes and others haven't
Thanks to vigorous holiday sales, our Etsy Shop is completely sold out of our fabric wrapped baskets! I'll be spending a few hours at the sewing machine today so that we can start filling the shop up with baskets in a range of sizes, shapes, and colors.
Today's basket is a beauty if I do say so myself!

I love how this basket is coming together. Aren't these colors amazing?
I started stitching this basket together on Sunday afternoon. I loved how it was taking shape and couldn't wait to share it with you. Then time went sideways on me and I was unable to finish it. Let's see if we can fix that this morning and get this lov
