Wednesday Special - Saint Pat's Hat

Frosty's Hat was a hit this winter, so we've redsigned it a bit and brought it back as a Leprechaun's hat. Won't this basket look cute in your front hallway?
Do you have young children that love to try to catch the "Tricky Tricky Leprechaun"?? Wouldn't this be a cute souvenier?

Did you purchase Frosty's Hat this winter? You can still use it as a Leprechaun's hat!! Simply tie a green ribbon around the hat, covering the red shoestring weave. You can add a simple buckle, too, if desired. Since the lid is removable from Frosty's Hat, you can add some green clover wired garland and a green spike. Unfortunately (?) I was VERY efficient in my undecorating this year and I put away Frosty's Hat (how silly of me!) I will take another pass through the basement and see if I can find it - as I did have plans to decorate it year round!! When (not if!) I find it, I will post a picture for you.

Also available today only - a Handled Cracker Basket. This is NEW and ONLY available online today. It's the same cracker basket we've known and loved over the years, but they added a stationary handle across the length of the basket. Now it's super handy for carrying small items around. I'm thinking PENCILS! My kids have TONS of pencils. That seems to be the gift du jour at birthday parties. Wouldn't it be nice to have a flat place for all those pencils? Currently they are rubber banded together and shoved in a drawer. When someone wants a new pencil, it's quite the ordeal. But having them out and available would make selection so much easier. And - here's a thought - maybe they kids would actually put them away!!! HAHAHA. But along that same thought - would this basket make a great teacher's gift? Don't all teachers have to have a slew of pens and pencils at the ready? (okay, I only have elementary to compare to). Just a thought. Buy a couple now (save some money!) and be prepared when the end of the year FINALLY rolls around (how many of you have children going extra days at the end because of snow days this winter??)

I would love to hear any other ideas you may have for these two great baskets. Let me hear them!!
