I have started gathering my collection of baskets. Grab a beverage,
this is a long post....
The two previous pictures are various baskets that were
scattered around the house and did not include
A random basket
basket of blankets
basket of cat toys
basket by the fireplace
basket holding junk things under the coffee table
corks collected for days years
basket of magazines
baskets above kitchen cabinets
more cabinets
baskets in the laundry room
more in the laundry room
cat bed basket
basket that holds matches
basket that hold CDs
baskets in the Potting Shed
more in the potting shed
oh, another random basket
baskets for recycle and garbage in the office.
Now, how do I decide which of these to get
rid of? There are many more some more
that aren't pictured. It is an illness a weakness that
I have had for years.
How do you decide which items in a collection you will
part with? I am in the process of simplifying things. But I have
found that it is NOT simple to simplify. This is only one of
be grudgingly taken under advisement happily received.
How many is too many???

These pictures tell me you're a basket case who loves wine, cats, and music. My kinda girl. Don't change a thing! Sorry. That didn't help you, did it. ...;)
Great post and I loved seeing your collection!
If you really want to pare it down, my recommendation is to pick your favorite style and then limit yourself to that. I collect hammered aluminum and I keep it under control by limiting myself to ones that have a basket-type handle so I can hang them up. I still have around 18, but it could be MUCH worse.
Oh...my....i know where you live, and I've chosen my favorites...so, I can take some off your hands!!! Hee hee...great, awesome, collection!!
LOVE baskets! Nice collection!
warmly,

Wow, you have a wonderful collection of baskets! If you downsize, keep the older ones. That's my recommendation....
Wow, lovely collection!!
Don't ask me...I have way too many collections that I can't seem to pare down. What a cool assortment!
