Inspired by the brilliant @theworldaroundme , dogwood plants on our land, and the Readers Digest book of Handicrafts from 1980 - I'm gathering the materials for my second ever basket!

Aww, thank you my lovely. I’m pleased I’ve inspired you! And wooow! Those dogwood stems have such amazingly assorted colours and would make a beauuutifuuul basket. I can already imagine it, and I’m getting jealous! Please show us the result. You may need to soak in water to make it more flexible, but I just left mine out overnight in the rain, lol.🍃😍
Yeyyyy! We have a basin that'll work for soaking, aye: some were cut a couple of weeks ago, some yesterday 🙌💚 Very excited to get to work, and for sure I'll share on Hive 💝
