Been quiet......but productive!

I have been busy getting myself organised for NZAME Convention, being held in Nelson, New Zealand 24-27 October.  It will be so nice to be back in Nelson - happy times, happy times!
Anyway, I have been doing some work in an effort to build up a stash of baskets and here are a few for you to look at.....

A selection of flower baskets - fun!


Flat based picnic hamper - lidded of course!




A bird carrier.

Eel traps - don't make too many of these - too stressful!!!



I was looking through my older posts to see when my last give away was - too long ago I think.  When I get back from New Zealand I will have a giveaway for all my followers.  Maybe a couple of flower baskets?  What do you think?  I just think they're pretty and would look gorgeous filled!

I hope you are all keeping well.  For those in the northern climes - back towards winter for you - but over here the weather has warmed up with a vengence and we're off and running into what I feel might be a long hot summer.

Take care everyone!

  2. Hi Lidi! It's a long time ago that I visited your blog: I was on holiday the whole month of August, so I missed your last post. But it is great to hear of you again :D! These baskets are awesome, as all of your work is. I love the flower baskets, it would be so nice to make some miniature flowers in it.
    Hugs, Ilona

  5. Lovely new baskets Lidi. The idea of standing in front of your table at a show with a pocket full of $$$ scares me. :-)))

  6. Hope you have a great time at the convention Lidi, love all your baskets, can see why you might find the eel traps stressful, they look fiddly to make.

  7. I hope you enjoy the convention. Unfortunately current circumstances prevent me from going to the convention this year. I would so like to have stood in front of your stall to see your baskets for real. I also could imagine the flower baskets full of flowers - beautiful.
