Basket Weaving ~ Cracker or Catchall Basket
This is one of my favorite little projects, and I use it every day. This is a beautiful 5" X 10" X 5" medium sized basket woven with a combination of various sized reeds along with an accent color. It is finished off with half round reed and sea grass. It is a sweet addition to a buffet table for crackers or dinner rolls, I use mine as a catch all for my t.v. clickers, pens and reding glasses. You will love the fact that you made it yourself, you'll go from not ever having weaved a thing, to making a basket in 3 hours ! After completion, the basket will be dipped in a black walnut stain for preservation, beauty and durability. This basket is sturdy with a myriad of uses.
