Pretty Spring Baskets and Cones

I had designed more May Day Baskets...........

when massive flooding hit Southern Missouri. We

don't live in the devastation areas but our business

and hometown took a huge hit.

It's with a tattered heart I post these lovely baskets and cone

this morning and hope it's not too late for you to get

use of them. I didn't designate May Day on the designs so they

may be used as candy baskets, small gift boxes or add 

party favors for a Spring garden party......

If you would like to show appreciation

for my free designs you may click
on my tip jar and leave donation

Here are some photos from the flooding in West Plains, Missouri

I've added a link at the bottom of the photos for a safe secure way to

make donations to the area.  Any small amout will be appreciated

Thank You !

May Day Baskets

May Day.........being a school child of the 50's was soooo fun !

We had this variety store in town that sold small plastic baskets.

You could buy a pack of 6 for $1.00 or  fifty cents. 

They also came in pink, white 

and blue.

🌷🌷🌷  I grew up in a wonderful neighborhood I shared with

 52 other kids  May Day was a fun time. Our Moms would make us little May baskets to share with all. Sometimes the baskets were as simple as

small paper cups with pipe cleaners as handles, sometimes the paper cups were

decorated with paper flowers or ruffles made out of spring colored crepe paper...

what ever they were made of  didn't affect the the excitement of filling the little baskets with borrowed flowers from other's yards and filled with jelly beans, Hershey Kisses or any penny candy. We would knock on doors, scream "May Day" to the top of our lungs and run away as fast as we couldd ! Knowing in our hearts we had definitely left the recipient totally mystified !🌷🌷🌷.

Happy May Day !

Here's some I've designed for you.........
