I have covered it with spring-like paper & paint but just imagine it tarted up for Christmas! As it has sloping sides its asking for dangly charms and pretty lace...whatever takes your fancy haha. The whole thing comes flat & you literally just slide the pieces together, adding a brad to attach the handle. Its pretty meaty too as it held the weight of the container of water inside.....can you tell I am impressed yet????
Instead of a brad I tied ribbon round the handle...
When the daffs have died off I am going to use it to store my crafting flowers in, well the ones with long stems anyway. Thank you so much for looking today, HUGS XXX

What a lovely basket, Karen. It's a gorgeous shape and I love the colours you've used. That Celtic looking pattern is fab.
Love the Daffs too, perfect for cheering us up on another dreary day.
