Curious and somewhat ignorant, but what is a Longaberger basket?

Handwoven baskets in varying shapes in sizes with wood lids with some. There are are also seasonal ones as well for Valentines, Christmas, Easter, and Halloween. They also have wrought iron accessories. LB baskets are known for liners and protectors(plastic). They also make purses, pottery, chair pads, napkins. They are made in Dresden, Ohio. I will take some pictures and post them. They are expensive. They start around 35 bucks up through about 300.

Hugs,

Funny you mentioned these. I have never heard of these baskets but after reading your post I went to my Uro. while there I was reading a magazine and they had a big article on them along with a picture of the basket building.
