Had a repair guy stop at my table and exclaim “YOU TWIST THOSE?!!” And then ask all kinds of questions.
You can see all the various steps in this picture
The Swedish advent stars start out as a pound of reed used for basket weaving, cut down to size. They are glued (set aside to dry)
Ends are wet (set aside to dry)
Glued again (set aside to dry)
And then two halves are put together and glued (set aside to dry😊)
It’s a tedious process, but it produces something absolutely gorgeous!

Please consider donating to Crescendo Youth Orchestra. They have a wonderful program for kids with wonderful teachers. They also have an adult orchestra that I am a part of and absolutely love! Your donation will help with music, instruments and music camps for the kids. Thank you in advance!

🚨 TODAY is the FINAL day to Give to the Max for Crescendo Youth Orchestra! 🚨

In many districts, orchestra programs barely exist — but CYO is changing that for kids across Northeastern Minnesota. With programs in Hibbing and nearby communities, CYO provides students with real musical opportunities they might never otherwise have.

Here’s what your gift supports:
🎶 Three orchestras — Prelude, Intermezzo & Encore
🎶 Affordable tuition: $56/month including lessons and weekly rehearsals
🎶 Scholarships so every child can participate
🎶 Summer String Camp for ages 7–17
🎶 Encore Quartets — advanced students performing at real, paid gigs!

CYO has been building confident young musicians since 2005, and today your donation keeps that mission strong.

👉🏼 Last chance — donate before midnight!

2 gallon, hands free berry/garden basket. Lots of people say to me that my regular berry picking basket is too small for them. This one should take care of that!!
