Christmas Card Baskets







I made this Christmas Card Basket before I left for vacation.   My mom and I had been discussing these baskets and I found directions on how to make them at  allfreecrafts.com.  It's really easy to make.  The templates are on the website. I never know what to do with the beautiful Christmas Cards; they are just too pretty to throw away.   I liked how the basket turned out so well that  I plan on making another and using thinner thread instead of the heavy yarn I used here.

  2. Your basket is very pretty, and you are right about--what to do with all the pretty cards? I think each year you should use the cards received the year before and make a basket, wouldn't that be neat?
