WOW!! I am continuously amazed at the quality and exquisiteness of all your baskets. And that's coming from someone who is half Zulu and half iSwati. Dumisile
My wife LOVES the two baskets I got her for Christmas... too much... She won't use them. She just wants them for decorations. I wanted to replace old baskets with really pretty ones. oh well. :) Dave
