The finished products: Wanda's basket and its twin

Wanda's basket appears in the first image. Its barrel shape and its earth tones are a reflection of what can be accomplished with rattan cane. The second image shows its twin, dressed up so as to be distinguishable from its sibling. The patterns are different as is the mix of earth tones and the texture and style of the decorative braiding. Its shape also reflects the different personality of that twin. (As a twin myself, personality and style differences are very important.)

The third image shows the twins together. Their family resemblance is clearly seen as are their indiosyncratic differences. The smaller twin will apear later today on my etsy shop site.
