bolga baskets

Just received a new batch of Bolga baskets (thanks V). It was a beautiful day so I spent the afternoon reshaping them. They come squashed flat so need to be dampened, pushed back into shape and then left to dry. Here they are, colours glowing in the late afternoon sun.

I have some cute little ones which are great for storage, as gift baskets filled with lovely bits and pieces, or for children, who absolutely love them....

And some fabulous big ones, which have a hundred different uses....

Now the sun has gone down, I've brought them into the house to finish drying. A wonderful smell of sweet grass is filling the house....
