Honeysuckle Baskets
The honeysuckle I use is kept natural. I do not use coloring or
any kind of finish on the honeysuckle or the completed baskets.
- The skinned honeysuckle starts out
light green in color and will turn a
beautiful gold which deepens the
more it's in the sunlight. The
baskets you order will arrive any
color within that range. Although no
two baskets are exactly the same,
you will most likely not notice a
difference.
The brown color you see in my baskets is unskinned
honeysuckle. This brown color will not change.
weight and have an ability to endure years of use without
showing wear. On this website the same image is used for
baskets in different sizes and the measurement is of the
greatest overall dimension, not including handles.
Honeysuckle is the only vine used in my basketry. On only a
very few of my pieces I use a small wire within the basket.
This gives an added support to an area I think needs it. I may
also use a twig, or small stones (for paperweight). Other than
that my baskets are made entirely of honeysuckle, picked
largely on the property where I grew up.
New - Artistic woodturner John Noffsinger and I have been
collaborating on some pieces. View an image on Elaborate
Pieces (#1025). See more of these pieces on John's website:
http://johnnoffsinger.com/gallery.htm, where you will also be
amazed at the incredible skill John puts into his work.
Complete satisfaction is guaranteed on all my baskets.
