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
Arrived promptly, ahead of schedule. The items were better than I thought they would be. Excellent craftsmanship, we are very pleased. Definitely shop here again! Thomas
