Dear Basket lovers,
We are know back from our holidays and very busy indeed putting together our order for baskets for later in the year and preparing for our Sydney Trade Fair - Life in style and getting back into the swing of all our weekly markets.
In our trip to France and Morocco and we saw lots of wonderful baskets. We have great fun wandering around the markets in Marrakech looking at other people styles and work. It was always fun to make them understand I wasn’t looking to buy another basket!
Every where we went we saw baskets being used for a variety of uses. Carrying food, large quantities of herbs or building materials. It just shows how versatile they can be!
The new range of baskets will be available for view for my wholesale clients in February at the Life Instyle trade fair. The Life Instyle trade fair is on from the Thursday 25th until Sunday 28th February. I am Stand 136 in the Royal Hall of Industries Pavillion. So come and see me and the new baskets during the fair.
Unfortunately my retail clients will have to wait for a few more months until the new shipment arrives. But with a lovely new range of baskets plus all the old favourites they will be worth the wait.
Happy ethical shopping
