Bring your contribution in an old-fashioned pie and cake basket, just like the one your grandmother used. The weave lets steaming-hot pies and casseroles breathe. The bulky shape sits well in the trunk of your car to help control spillage. A rack lets you stack two pies, cakes or casseroles. Butternut with two navy stripes and one cranberry.
Peanuts go in one side, shells in the other.
Makes a great gift for Dad. The striking shape of this basket, which comes from joining two baskets together, attracts even the most seasoned basket collector. We've seen it used as a planter with two 4 inch pots, for silk flower arrangements and in the bath holding toothpaste and cosmetics. Handwoven of ash. Or you can perch it picturesquely on a step filled with silk or dried flowers.
