Description: This is a great project for first time basket makers. The base is woven, and then glued to the rim eliminating the pesky rim lashing. You will go home with a piece that is finished, held together with clothes pins until it dries. This 10″x10″ tray is great for fruit, bread, or keeping small projects together.
