They're here! My baskets from Ann of A Hole in the Basket!
My grocery bag holder/dispenser. This is a must have for those reusable plastic bags from the grocery store. I told Ann I had loads of those bags so she made my basket a little taller. Thank you sweetie, we both love them both.
They are excellent :D
They are excellent :D
Also from Ann, my beautiful long basket, which I borrowed Linda's idea of displaying the swans made by Angie of Lil Raggedy Angie. Cuddling beneath my basket is my willow tree runner made by Michelle of Granny's pantry.
I put my pip berry garland in there and now I'm waiting on another swan from Angie.I was also thinking about adding a white pip berry garland. What ya think?
What's been going on in the wood shop is this custom order for a knife holder for a customer who will soon enough be a new mommy.
Still a work in progress, there will be a back on it. This is for the customer's collection of cheese spreader knives. So that's what has been going on in the wood shop in addition to filling regular orders and Tim mowing lawns in the heatwave we're having here.
I am truly thankful for my swap mates and all of you kind and wonderful ladies I've met while blogging. Your compassion and thoughtfulness is indelible.

Good morning Carol,
what a lovely table display with treasures from sweet friends! The knife cabinet is quite unique~
Well the sun is shining and no wind but it isn't warm.
Send me some heat! It was only 28 this morning!!!!
Wouldn't you know it, just because hubby brought home a beautiful red geranium with mini purple trailing petunia hanging basket as a surprise! Good thing we're used to these temp variations here in Idaho. We'll be bringing it in every night for some time.
hugz and blessings~

Carol, I'm really liking the pip berry garland in the basket with the swan. Keep your eye on the swan - Shadow has been carrying mine around the house by the neck!
Just got my cupboard hung up this afternoon - I'll be showing it off soon on my blog. Thanks for the swap. ~Ann
I love your long basket on your table!! A basket like that would look perfect on my table. I think white pip berries would be a great addition!! What a great swap!!
the pip berries look amazing! And I love my swans, too. Angie is amazingly talented, as is Ann. I love my baskets by Ann. Michelle's penny rugs are great, too. We seem to share our circle of friends. It is a good thing--a very good thing!
Wonderful baskets from Ann Missy Carol! I spotted that bag basket right away when she first showed them, I so, so, need one....but might have to rearrange to make it fit (yeah, same ol' space issues as always....) And I agree with Robin #1 - I'm liking just the red pips.....Happy Sunday! Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin (PS - can't wait to see that spreader holder finished up....I don't believe I've ever known anyone who collected those!)
Beautiful baskets and love how you displayed the longer one, makes a nice table topper.

Hi Carol,
Love your swap goodies!
The knife holder is fabulous!
Enjoy your heat. Has been cold here! Had to cover the tomato plants-freezing!
Barb
Carol the long basket on your table is so sweet! And two Swans will finish it off. Could you mix the red and white pip baerries in there? That might look kinda cool. And what a clever ideal for the cheese spreaders!!! You should make some more for your shop. Cuz I thinkthat's pretty clever! I have a few cheese spreaders myself. Thanks for sharing!! XO Fran.
