I recently purchased these beauties at a Blacksburg Food Lion after falling in love with them at first sight. My grandmother and my Mom used to have them on their porches every summer. I’ve never seen baskets shaped like these with really enhance the beauty.
Beautiful baskets
Fushia
Fushia basket-basket looks like an inverted pyramid.
I'm a country girl from the western part of Virginia in a small community of New Castle/Craig County. I've lived in Craig all my life-eighteen years with my parents and siblings and forty + years with my wonderful husband.
We have two children, a boy and a girl, and two grandchildren, all of which we love very much. We live on a 500 acre+ farm that has been in my husbands family for over 200 years. We are raising beef cattle, chickens, rabbits and a couple dogs.. We grow pretty much all we eat or harvest from the farm and I can't imagine living anywhere else.
I love to create, craft, quilt, read, write, decorate, crochet, candlewick, bake, bow hunt, cook, garden, farm animals and walking/hunting in the woods. I love sharing our home with family and friends.
I hope you enjoy the posts that I enter on my blog and hopefully will be helpful and/or fun to all that read it.

This site is about my life as a farmgirl, wife, mother and grandmother and the things I love to do. I've been married to the same man that I love for 40+ years. We have two beautiful adult children and one granddaughter. We pretty much live off of our farm by raising our food or hunting for it. My blog is a day to day walk-through of our life.

I bought them with the plant in them up at Food Lion on North Main. Aren’t they beautiful and the most unusual baskets.

I’m trying to picture a hedge of fushcia and think it would be probably the most beautiful thing in the world. I hope the toe heals fast and I will let you know the day I receive your letter. You take care and have a grand day!

Very Snazzy pot plant holder. Heaps of fushias in hanging baskets in my street on porches and verandahs etc, but none in pyramid “snazzy” ones. I will tell some of the proud owners of your baskets!
My grandparents when both lots retired to Sydney grew fushias. They are pretty easy to grow and make very attractive hedges on the fences.
I have (I think) rebroken a small toe! So am not too happy. Toes fix themselves – I hope this one with extra care from the bumping department will stop aching PRONTO!!!
According to my estimation with posts – the contents of letter etc should by now have cleared LAX and be enroute to Richmond!
Then again the Postal agencies and I rarely get things in unision – ha ha!
Was a cloudless day early – now again the clouds coming from all directions! Damn. Just gives that darn useless drizzle stuff to make everyone miserable!
