It usually takes me 6 baskets to create a single basket that is suitable for a basketry class. It is what I call the Goldilocks Syndrome. Some are too difficult, some have too many spokes, some have too much weaving, some have too many time-consuming parts and pieces, some have too many new techniques and some have color combinations that just don’t appeal to a wide audience. While I love creating and learning from these “3 Bear” baskets, my space is limited and a select few must make their way to another home.
And sometimes I make a wall hanging because…well…because I can. I just love them, but once again, I am running out of wall space…
Diameter = 20”
Height=1.0”
Colors: The basket uses neutral colors including gray, smoke, natural and black. The 5” base plays with these neutrals but throws a slight blue/green color change around the black cells.
