Bright and cheery basket

Hallo, 

   Took me a bit to catch up but I an sure there will be more soon - I have a basket in the works with a deer antler for a handle (and that one has defiantly been a challenge)

  This basket uses another of my bazillion vintage plates (Etsy is very addictive!!)

  I used some brighter colors for this one to set off those pretty flowers!!!

   It measures about 7 inches round and 2 inches tall.

   Stay tuned for a few vacation pics and maybe some pics of my booth at the Art Festival this last weekend!!!

Wolf basket

 Hallo,

  Another basket start I have had around for awhile and another one that I had to finagle a bit because the holes were too small for the needle I like to use. 

  This basket is about 10 inches round and 2.5 inches tall.

   Almost there.....

Copper and bronze basket

Hallo, 

  I had this basket start in mind when I bought these skeins of cording - love the copper and bronze colors!!!

   This is a bigger basket - about 12 inches round and 3 inches tall.

   Still more baskets to come....

Teals and purples

Hallo,

   I have had this basket start for quite awhile and decided it was time to use it - had to finagle a bit because the holes were smaller than the needle I usually use but I managed.

   I also used some yarn from my endless stash in my craft room (I haven't knitted in over 10 years but I still have alot of yarn!!!). This was a variegated  skein and I have a couple more left...

  The basket is about 7 inches round and about 2 inches tall.

   Take Care

 P.S. I have a basket class scheduled at HH ARTS GALLERY in Fort Walton Beach the beginning of November if you want to learn how to make these yourself. Details on my Instagram page - @translucentfirefly.

      Take Care

  More baskets to come....

Landscape plate basket

Hallo,

   With all the driving we did in our travels the last 2 weeks of sept, I got a few baskets done ( hubby does all the driving - I just navigate...)

   This is a vintage hand painted plate that I used as a base for this basket .

  I used cording in greens and yellow to kinda match the plate a bit.

  It is about 8 inches round and 2 inches tall.

     All for today - take care!!
