Longaberger Sale

I know I mentioned a few posts ago that I was collecting some of my Longaberger baskets and planning a sale. I spent the day today organizing my baskets, taking pictures of them, and making a listing of what I have and what I am selling them for. I'm going to post a few photos here. For those of you who are interested, I have photos of over 30 baskets. Let me know if you'd like me to e-mail you any of the photos, and the descriptive list. All of these baskets but one are retired, and I have a variety - from Christmas to Easter to May Series to Horizon of Hope. ENJOY!
This is the 2000 Founder’s Market basket, protector & lid. I have never used this basket, it's been stored in a box for over 7 years!

This basket was created to honor Dave Longaberger, the founder of Longaberger. Dave helped develop the unique stair-step weaving style, planning to save it for some special occasion in the future. Little did he know that it would be used to honor and commemorate his life. (He passed away in 1999). The basket measures 14 1/2" x 9 1/2" x 7 1/2" and features 1/4" weaving. It took the weavers two to three times longer than any other basket to complete. In fact, it is the most difficult
basket they have ever made. It is a true work of art! This basket combo
is selling on E-bay for $250+.

1998 & 2001 Horizon of Hope baskets, 2000 May Series Geranium basket and tall tissue basket - the only one I believe is still available.

Linda, I would like to see a list too. I'm home sick and probably won't be in until Thursday. Never thought I would be anxious to go to the office :0)

Do you have a laundry hamper in the mix? I need one for a Christmas gift for the daughter in law.

First Day of School

It's tradition at my house to take a "first day of school" picture. The kids get less and less thrilled every year, but I still do it. Here are the twins before they left for their first day of senior year: Kind of funny that they both wore gray - unplanned of course! I think Kaitlin is putting in her plug for the college she'd like to go to. They had a good day. Found out that at 1800 students, Heights is over their limit by 400 students!!! OMG! I'm not sure what the answer is, but it is WAY TOO CROWDED! I think the northeast side of town needs a new high school. Something needs to be done! Just finished my Nora Roberts book, and have started New Moon, the second book in Stephenie Meyer's vampire series. Kaitlin took Abby to the vet yesterday to get her last distemper shot and a rabies shot. The vet told her that she comes from a line of very strong / physically superior cats. I knew there was some reason that she climbs EVERYWHERE in the house, including u...
