Autumn has arrived with all of its changes and beauty. The vibrant and variety of colors this time of year are always an inspiration. I enjoyed making these pine needle baskets while taking in all that the season has to offer, even the rain! After this hot and dry summer, I will never take the rain for granted again. I tried to incorporate some of the colors of the season along with inspiring pendants and beads, too. Enjoy!
"Wandering"
I made my "Wandering" pine needle basket using natural brown Longleaf pine needles that were baked in a glycerin bath, dark green artificial sinew, yellow jasper chip beads, scenic mountain and sunrise "Not all who wander are lost" pottery heart pendant, and a golden picture jasper stone set in resin for the base. This basket measures approximately 5" round by 3" tall.
I made my "Hippy Heart" pine needle basket using natural brown Longleaf pine needles that were baked in a glycerin bath, earthtone orange artificial sinew, a colorful variety of metal feather drop beads, a feather "hippy heart" pottery heart pendant and a green aventurine heart spirit energy totem stone set in resin for the base. This basket measures approximately 4-1/2" round by 2-3/4" tall.
