Born and RAISED...

My Mom made me this snazzy new basket to hold my toys, all of them! It's great, and was worth the wait. Sometimes I have to be very patient. ~sigh~ She posted last week about the basket being born, she had to go to the store and buy more thread; plus, wrap more clothesline to make the sides higher and higher. ( I have a LOT of toys!) In fact, I think there's room inside for even more, I am going to ask her to take me to the toy store... CAR TRIP! ~wag, wag, wiggle, wiggle~
Oh, yeah... there's plenty more room in here...
Life is Good!

  1. Awww, so cutemous. Way to go on the rockin' cool basket, too. Speaking from basket-making experience - please allow me to say you are Uber-Cool. I cannot fathom the work it took to reach this size. Yep, this was some effort. Allow me to add that you have my Uber-respect . I'm just sayin' from knowin'...

  4. Beautiful basket! And you actually made one and made it bigger. They've been on my 'to do' list for so long, the clothes that used to hang on the clothes line no longer fit ;)

  7. Hannes,

    I love to get in baskets too. Sometimes it's just the easiest way to get your toys.

    See you soon.
    Love,

  9. Way to go, Hannes ~ you've been SO patient . . . that is an awesome basket (and a great hiding spot, if you snuggle down 'under' the toys!

    Have fun on the car trip to the doggie toy store!

  14. WTG--the basket looks great and how nice that puppy appreciates all your hard work. Just hope he doesn't confuse the basket for a toy!

  17. Dear Hannes,
    I know for a fact, that Mt. Tabor Board & Grooming have lots of toy & treats on the wall as you come in the door. I visited there this week for a hair cut & bath and I couldn't make up my mine which one I liked best. Happy shopping.
    Your friend,
