And if so do you use them?
I buy baskets every chance i get. I both give them as gifts and use them for sotrage and carrying. I just thought of this because tonight I have a church supper ot go to and am using 2 of my baskets to take baked goods!
Some how they feel very, prairieish to me! (I know thats not a word but there isn't one to desribe what i mean):D

I collect them, I have my favorites hanging on the kitchen ceiling, I use other to organize or for catch alls..... Most are on the ceiling of my basement craftroom, I use them for gift baskets.... I use all finds..... Pretty , wooden, pastel ones from Easter time, I use for baby shower gifts....Lately I been getting a lot of animal shaped baskets...... BTW...I buy them at yard sales and seldom pay more than .50c each.........

gosh if i have to pay over 75 cents i don't buy it, INLESS it is really special Huge, or i just have to have it but never ever do i pay over 2.00 per basket any more than that i think they want to keep it more than they want me to have it. :D

I have a few but not many. I plan on looking for more though because dd loves them and so do I. Now if I could just find a few old old ones I'd be happy.
