I was about to pull them out of the machine into my usual plastic wash basket. But then I thought "No, I'll use a nicer basket that will look more pleasing"
Which is just what I did, I fetched this wicker basket and my spirits lifted, I found I was humming happily and really enjoyed taking the photo's
Oh dear writers block, I must have started a dozen times but the words did not flow.
So I left it a couple of days and today taah dahhh! I realised what the problem was, I was not being honest with myself ,I may have fetched the camera to take pics of my bags - but what had made me happy was photographing the basket. Because this basket is very special to me.
Taking the photos had reminded me of that fantastic week with all my dearest friends. And that was why I had been unable to write my original ideas.
I realised today that the truth was I wanted to show you my basket, and relive my happy day again through telling you about it.

Sounds like a lovely memory to relive... I love baskets... something so wholesome and true about them... I'd be lying if I didn't say I am also intrigued about the wrinkly pod bags too! ;D

What a great memory! The last time I made a basket was at school, about 1988. I loved the fact that you could see the basket forming infront of you!

hi Last year, when camping, I noticed some willow in the hedge behind our placement. When hubby returned from swimming, he was surprised to see that I had made a little basket from the hedge. You can see a picture of it on my blog if you are interested. I love your basketand understand why you are so proud of it.
