I am super excited to introduce my little straw basket ornaments. I love these little guys. Each is hand sewn from the same straw I use for millinery. They are hand shaped as I make them. So, each one is unique. They are ornament size, under 3 inches. I put them in groups of three, with a mix of natural and color straw. They are ready for you to nest a little gift inside or decorate.

Making these little baskets nudged me closer to another idea. I’ve pondered making straw basket pin cushions for a while. I made a very limited number to see how I like them. Turns out, I like them quite a lot. They are simple round baskets of straw plait with red velvet cushions tucked inside.
I decided to make two past favorites this season: the walnut shell pin cushions and the velvet strawberry pin cushions. My photo studio (aka second bathroom) is filled with pin cushions right now

I also brought back the cute nest pen wipers I made last year. I thought these were the most darling things. I also think they would look super cute tucked into tree boughs. (I am tempted to make more of the little straw nests for my tree or for friends.)
If I Had My Own Blue Box: 
Love the ornaments, especially the basket pincushions. I hope they don’t sell out before I get paid. I want one!
