After having another look at Casey's baskets http://caseymini.blogspot.com/search/label/baskets
I decided to have a go!

Here is the result, Im still working on the orange and blue one, my eyes were getting blurry so I will attempt to finish tomorrow
I so want to try the coil baskets too but not sure if I can find covered wire! Will have a look tomorrow

  6. The baskets look good. Covered wire - how about trying telephone cable which has lots of covered wires (of different colours) in the main core.

  9. Thanks for the link Deni, I did have a look but I don't think any of the roses they had there were small enough. I may have found a site in Asia that sells them very cheaply in bulk.
    All the best!

  11. Hi Denie. Beautiful baskets and such tiny work.
    The two which are finished look great.
    Maybe you need to have your eyes checked if you were struggling. I know when i was wearing the wrong prescription mine too would go blurry.
    Isn't Casey clever too. She an inspiration for everyone. Theres nothing she can't do!
