MY NEW CRAFT IS BASKETS. BASKETS USING DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES AND MATERIALS. I’LL BE WORKING ON THIS SKILL TILL THE END OF THE YEAR AS I WANT TO TRY TO EXPERIMENT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

MY FIRTS ATTEMPT WAS WITH A KIT I GOT ON ETSY FROM ROSALINDPOUNDER.

I LOVE HER HAND DRAWN INSTRUCTIONS! I’VE NEVER DONE A BASKET OR COIL BEFORE, SO IT DID TAKE ME A BIT TO TRY AND UNDERSTAND EXACTLY WHAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO DO!

ONCE I DID START, I REALLY LOVED ADDING LAYERS TO THE COIL!

IT’S VERY SMALL AND CUTE AND IS NOW WITH MY DAUGHTER! SHE’S USING IT TO STORE HER BABY SHELLS FROM OUR RECENT TRIP TO DUBAI.

I’M SO READY TO TRY A BIGGER VERSION!
