hehehe I'm guessing that didn't work out super well for you

I love this idea!!

That sounds so cool! Do you have any posts with pictures or talking about how you did it? I learned how to make cordage once from wild materials but I don't know much about it.

Friend, the world need not be governed by utility: just enjoy the act of making things.

For your dime.

Hehe you might not work with small objects a lot! I have several little baskets, bowls and pottery pots about this size. The ones I can see right now contain my enamel pin collection, my hair accessories (bobby pins, clips, etc), my rings, and my earrings. I also have a little bowl for safety pins and another for wonder clips since I do a lot of sewing. This size could also scale up easily to hold straws, pencils, pipe cleaners, and anything else light, long, and narrow. I have previously used containers of this size to hold cool rocks and stickers too. And the writer of the post explains how you can make different shapes and sizes of basket, too, so you can upscale for your own needs!

But, as someone else said, sometimes it's nice to just make a thing for the joy of making a thing c:

For holding two grapes, or perhaps two dozen raisins

Decorative, put some smol neat thing in there

Tweezers, safety pin, chapstick, just to name a few 😛

I think you dry them before you use them, so they'll be just like any other basket! So probably not great to get it wet etc but it won't rot. But also I suspect if you used the stems still fresh, they probably would just dry in the shape of the basket? My partner makes baskets out of other materials like tree bark and that just dries out.

oh no
