As some of you may know I have been MIA for a few weeks ...... things got a bit overwhelming with real life and then when I was creating I did not have the energy to think about taking photos and lighting blah blah blah. And I have also been über focused on taking off a few inches and lbs. Thanks to a few of my buddies ....... Keva and Laurie....... here I am with my Pals challenge.
Our challenge for the Pals this month was to create an Easter project. What to do....... what to do...... I first started with a quick easy basket this morning but could not find my chalk to finish my bunny so ...... he did not make it to Hollywood ........ I knew I wanted to make a basket and I knew I wanted to do something for Emma's teachers and the girls in the office so I went on my mission to find the right basket. I found this tutorial and the rest is history. This is one of the baskets....... I am going to be making about 5 more and by then I should have my little stamp to fit in my tiny tags that reads
"Happy Easter"
And one more thing .......... Thursday is opening day
Let's Go YANKEES!!!
and I turn 29 again
And a few things that make me very happy..........
Have a great week!!!

First, let's focus on the fact that IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY!!!!! What a perfect day for me to check back in on my Reader :) Yayyy!!! I hope you'll be treated like the royal queen you ARE!
And, that basket is the best Easter basket I have ever seen! Seriously, I LOVE the woven eyelet handle, the pink & kraft weave, and the ring of chickies. GREAT pictures with good lighting too (ain't that a bitch sometimes?). You done good.
Happy Birthday Sue Anne!!
Those baskets are adorable. LOVE the way you threaded the ribbon through the handle like that.
Happy 29th birthday again, lol!!!
Oh wow, awesome basket! I love all the texture with the ribbon and the weaving and the button and the paper grass!

Sue Ann! What an absolutely adorable little basket! I love it! My girls want me to make one each for their bedroom. I'll add that into my list of things to do...
Hope your birthday was wonderful!
What a wonderful project. Those little ducks couldnt be cuter. The base shape of your basket and the colors you've used are perfect. Such a dear basket. Thanks for the tut too. This is a real must try. And for the fresh basil... Heaven!
Hey there!
First off the project is adorable! Really!
But what I wanted to say...is if you need any other support on working off those pounds, always write me! I find its nice to have someone to talk to and have someone else say...god job for NOT eating that ice cream! LOL! I've lost some weight and want to go farther...not so easy but I am trying!
Have a good one darling!
Adorable basket! And you have a lovely blog - such beautiful work on here.
