Basket's "Plain & Simple"

Here is another talent that my wife has, the weaving of  basket's. The style of basket's that she makes are styles that were made in colonial time and used in everyday tasks around the homestead. They are all hand made and dyed with home made walnut stain.

The baskets' pictured are, two large Melon-shaped egg basket, two large market baskets, service basket,berry or apple basket, and three types of gathering baskets.
