A Tisket! A Tasket!


Grand Aveue in St. Paul, Minnesota has shops, stores, cafes, and restaurants to satisfy many different tastes, and a day spent shopping there is a real pleasure because of the variety. In my home I use many different kinds and shapes of  baskets that are both decorative and very useful.  I think I could use a few more!

  2. I agree with you about baskets. In the library of our home, which is where I do by blogging, I have an upside down basket to hide the electronic units that are connected to the flat screen TV on the wall, with an antique Italian carved angel standing on the basket. My wife would never tolerate the "exposed electronics" look.

    I like your baskets (did you invent the terms you used as a title?). They are very much in the fashion here too.

  4. Such an ancient craft, basket weaving, and still so perfect a solution for so many things.

  5. One can never have too many baskets! This looks like a Michael's or Hobby Lobby store!
