The National Blog Posting Month website posed a contest for all bloggers to make a blog post every day for the 30 days of November.
So, I jumped on the bandwagon at the first of this month and joined the contest, committing to making at least one post a day for 30 days during the month of November.
I’m happy to report that I MADE IT! Whew, that’s the first time in over five years of blogging here that I’ve actually made a blog a day for 30 days!
How did all the rest of you do?
Now that deer hunting season is over, you might be able to snag some not-so-perfect antlers from hubby or his friends and make some terrific home-made woven antler baskets out of them!
Give the gift that will live on forever and can be used in a variety of home, cabin or business decor situations. Perfect for an engagement or wedding present, housewarming gift, birthday present or holiday gift.
Just click on over to the Antler Basket Patterns page of WickerWoman.com where you will find a selection of basket patterns for the Intermediate to Advanced basketmaker.
Here is a list of the more simple and easiest antler basket patterns geared for the intermediate basketweaver with prior rib basket experience: Destination, Coin Catcher, Nesting Quietly, and Safe Keeping.
Patterns can be purchased on the site using PayPal, the most reliable and easy payment system.
Make a purchase of three or more patterns and I’ll throw in a special FREE gift, not available anywhere else on the Internet, an antler basket tip sheet, “13 Tips to Weaving Sensational Antler Baskets!”

A few weeks ago, I was contacted by a representative of the Nielsen TV Rating Company and asked if I’d like to participate in doing their TV watching surveys.
I’ve always wanted to do this, since I first heard about them in the early 1950s. So here was my chance and I jumped at it right away! The instructions were very easy to comply with and I’m to just keep a diary of all the TV watching that takes place in our home.
I now have my TV in the studio, so I watch it mostly during the afternoon and evenings when I’m doing chair caning, antler basketweaving or wicker repair. Mornings are my most productive time for writing, so hardly ever watch during the mornings. And hubby almost never
What are your TV watching patterns? What are your favorite shows and can/do you watch during basketweaving or other craft times?
Hopefully you will be with your family, friends and other loved ones today, thankful and grateful to be living here in these United States.
We are lucky to have nutritious food, reasonable cost housing, good education and the freedom to do almost everything we desire.We have abundance all around and I’m thankful that I’m open to receive it, are you?
I thank God for each and every new day that is given to me, and consider it the most precious gift to treasure. Hopefully, I will be around for many more years, but if not, I’m thankful and grateful that I’ve been blessed to be here to enjoy what I have.
Take time this day to appreciate all those around you, give thanks for all you have and will have. Enjoy Life!
