I just opened the box of Binga baskets I recently ordered. I had to write and say that I am blown away by how gorgeous they are. As your tag notes, I also have never seen ones so beautifully woven. It was a treat to open the box! Josephine
I just received my basket. Thank you for being so prompt. It is beautiful. Judy
