Lovely the way your basket turned...Dearest Rebecca,<br />Lovely the way your basket turned out, especially with that tag.<br />Wow, you got some snow. We got rain, way too much of it and had some flooding in the basement... Probably need to install better gutters that can handle ALL the water so it will get diverted away from the house.<br />Feel exhausted after an entire night of wringing cotton floor cloths... to mop up. After a Rotaract meeting this morning, Pieter came home with a 2nd wet vac so that helped. Still need to empty that every 20-30 minutes... We need some rest!<br />Happy Valentine to you!<br />Hugs,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934579070684149103.post-22343302230569023982013-02-13T19:00:27.948-06:002013-02-13T19:00:27.948-06:00Oh how pretty!

I always look at pictures like yours and imagine them being used on a calendar. Your basket turned out beautifully! Love the sign, too. I did something similar a few years ago. Wish I had thought of the hair dryer for removing things with hot glue though. I haven't seen any nice baskets at our Goodwill. I should probably look beyond what is in them {like faux flower arrangements}.
