Is it just me, or does the second half of the year seem full of birthdays? 🎉

If you're on the hunt for a thoughtful gift idea, my handmade rope basket is one of those presents people actually use.

Perfect for keys, sunglasses, jewellery or all the little everyday essentials, it's practical, timeless and looks beautiful in any home.

My trusty sewing machine and I transform natural cotton rope into baskets designed to be used and loved every day.

🤍 A gift they'll enjoy long after the birthday cake is gone!
