I love it when I get really great things to play with and to decorate with. That is definitely my favorite kind of gift. My daughter knows me all too well. She gave me the fabulous flavored olive oils and had them all displayed so beautifully in this wonderful wire basket. Of course I tore it all apart so I could see it all and didn't get a pic., but take my word for it, it was really pretty.
Can't you just imagine how many wonderful displays I can make in this great basket.
She had this all filled with the most wonderful oils, chocolate truffle candies and these wonderful tea towels. Don't you just love them.

I love that basket. Wire baskets are wonderful for storing and displaying and I know you will create something wonderful in it.
Great basket, Marty! I'm sure you'll come up with lots of ways to use it for your tabletops! : ) I have a closet of things here to go through and one of the things is a wire basket. Except it's a hideous green so I'll have to paint it! I think it originally came with gardening related things in it.
Can't wait to see your first use of the awesome wire basket!
Happy New Year!

I can't wait to see what you do with your basket!! What a lovely gift from your daughter.
I totally agree...what a great basket. I have a similar one that is more of an oval. I love it...I hope 2012 brings you nothing but good things. I have enjoyed getting to know you this past year. Happy New Year!
Marty,
Your daughter has great taste...like her Mother! Can't wait to see how you "dress" this basket!
Fondly,

That certainly was a thoughtful gift! She took the time to collect all of those nice things and package them for you. Love those towels and of course, that cute wire basket. You'll never run out of uses for it!
The goody filled basket was a great gift from a daughter who knows how to make her mom happy. Glad you had a great Christmas with your family.------- Shannon

Great gifts. Yes, so many uses for that basket. She did good.
My children are great to try and find things that they know I will love. They all three ordered my Christmas gifts from different Etsy shops this year. I was so excited.
I love your basket. What a great gift she gave you with it all loaded up with goodies. I love gift baskets.
Hi Marty! I so love that basket, it's one that I would love to have! Know you will enjoy and I can't wait to see what all you can do with it!
Hope you had a wonderful Christmas!

The wire basket is great! I know you will come up with some wonderful displays. Do you ever go to the Olive Mill in Queen Creek? It's a new discovery for me. The prices are high, but the olive oils are so rich, I usually use them to top off my regular olive oil.
Happy New Year!
