Weaving baskets

Mr. and I spent a day at The Basket Case recently and had a great time.
We made a willow basket each from scratch.

This is the only photo I managed while we were making the baskets

8 hours and many scratches and broken nails later; we had a willow basket each.

Mr.'s

Mine

Mr. very kindly made his so that it stacked with mine (just a happy coincidence)- makes storing them at home a lot easier.

The woman who taught us was a very good teacher and it was a nice relaxing day. They grow their own willow for weaving and we got to see it growing too.
