Basket again

Ok, I'm a basket maniac! At last I bought a book about basketry to learn the appropriate weaving techiques. Now I know how to make the different borders. But I have to practice a lot!
And I use wires I paint after weaving with the shades of brown and yellow. The weaving is not too even, but I like the result. 
On the last photo there is a basket, too, somewhere under the napkin. But the point is the content of the basket, tiny scones not more than 5mm in diameter.





And I have many many new followers I haven't welcome yet. Sorry, now I haven't flowers in my garden for you, but I'm very happy you are interested in my works.

    Tus alimentos siempre me alegran la vista. Un placer.
