Project Story:
I built a few extra Baskets as I was working out the design I wanted to donate to a fund raiser coming up soon at my kid’s elementary school.
That Donation basket is posted here
The Bucking Bronco version of this basket has been posted here
The End Panels and Bottom are Salvaged antique Pine wood. I believe the Natural Twigs are from Ash Saplings. The Twig End Ties are synthetic sinew. The carving is done free hand with a router, and is then hand painted. The top finish is Gold Oak Stain, with a clear Satin Lacquer.
Thanks for looking.
