Oh The Beautiful Baskets!




As promised, here is a list of ideas for the medium wreath basket from Longaberger. This picture shows it with the red hurricane, garland and filled hurricane candle inside. Absolutely gorgeous for a centerpiece! But how about taking the garland out and filling with chips, pretzels, crackers and cheese, candies, replace the garland put some ice in the red hurricane and put a bottle of wine inside, remove the hurricane and replace with a 5" bowl for dip, place vegetables in the divided protector. How about filling the hurricane with holiday candies? Fill the entire basket or half with the garlands and hang it on the wall as a Holiday decoration. Change out the garland to fit the Holiday. Eggs for Easter, roses for Valentines, etc. Having a Brunch? Fill it with muffins and bagels and biscuits with butter and spreads in a bowl in the middle. Fill the bowl with coctail sauce, place ice in the regular protector, sit the divided protector on top to hold shrimp, etc. Make it crafty and separate your beads, cross stitch threads, scissors, glue, scrapbooking supplies. Basically, the ideas are endless. Put your basket to use all year round!



Lots to do today and a Halloween party for the kids, so keep checking back for more ideas and progress on my list.
