Lake Tahoe Pine Needle Baskets

My Sturdy, durable, beautiful pine needle baskets
At one time in my life I decided to make some pine needle baskets. It ended up turning into a little side company called A Time to Remember. While I had so much fun making them, I have not made one in years. My friend Keisha asked me one day why I don't make them anymore and all I could say was "I just stopped". The one that have solid bottoms, I used mostly pine, has a wood burned design in the bottom, used oil pencils for coloring then I sealed them. The clocks are the easiest item to make and was also the best seller. All the pine needles were hand picked by me someplace in the Lake Tahoe basin. I still live in Tahoe and have recently become disabled, LOL disabled at 44 now that sucks, so maybe I will take it up again someday :-)
