Who says baskets can't reflect your personality? 🌈✨

They come in so many different colours and combinations — not just the ones featured in this reel! 💕

The baskets shown here are already made and ready to find their loving new homes, but if you're after something a little more you, custom colour options are always available.

Which colour would you choose? 😊

I sat down today and realised just how many creations I've made that I never took photos of 😅🧶

So today I'm playing catch-up and giving some of them their moment in the spotlight 💕

✨ Meet "Pixie" Medium Basket✨

The cheekiest colour to arrive in my craft room lately 💜💕🩵

Pixie is a gorgeous blend of purple, pink, and celeste that somehow manages to be playful, dreamy, and eye-catching all at once.

The catch? I only managed to get one hank before it sold out 😱

That means I'll only be able to create one more basket in this beautiful colour... or, maybe (and that's a very big maybe 😅) a smaller size organiser.

Once it's gone, it's gone.

I have a feeling Pixie won't be around for long, and honestly, I can see why 😍✨

So tell me... what would you choose — a basket or an organiser? 💕🧺

A small tweak to my labels, but it means a lot to me. ❤️

I recently changed the wording from 'Made with Love' to 'Australian Made.' It's a simple change, but one that reflects the pride I take in handcrafting every piece right here in Australia ❤️🇦🇺

✨ New idea alert! ✨

I love finding new ways to use the supplies and designs I already have, and that's exactly how this little set was born 💕

My kids aren't big fans of hot drinks, which means I usually end up needing two coasters on hand rather than a whole stack. It got me thinking... perhaps I'm not the only one? ☕😉

So I paired one of my little oval baskets with two matching coasters and created a practical little set that's perfect for keeping close at hand while looking beautiful on a coffee table, desk, or bedside table 🧺✨

The coasters in this set are slightly smaller than my Jumbo Coasters but still a very generous size at approximately 11cm in diameter.

And if you're wondering about the difference:
☕ "NEW" Regular Coasters – approx. 11cm diameter
☕ Jumbo Coasters – approx. 13cm diameter

The little basket keeps everything neatly together, so no more searching for where that missing coaster wandered off to 😂

I have a feeling this might be the first of many new combinations and gift sets. My creative brain seems to have entered its "what else can I make?" phase again 😅🧶✨

Would you use a set like this in your home? 💛
As always in your choice of colours ;)

I'm a little upset with myself today 😅

I was happily working on a promised fox basket, feeling productive and pleased with how it was coming along... when my crochet hook decided to stage a rebellion and scratched the freshly varnished wooden base 🙈🦊

Will it affect the basket? Not at all.

Will it drive me absolutely crazy every time I look at it? 100% yes 😂

So this little fox has officially been promoted from "for sale" to "permanent resident" status in our house 🏡✨

I'm simply that type of maker who can't offer something when I know it has even the tiniest defect. Would anyone else notice it? Maybe not. And "maybe" is the key word. Would I remember it forever? Absolutely. And then I'd have nightmares wondering whether someone noticed it too, or if it's just my perfectionist brain being its usual crazy self 😅

As soon as he gets his ears, he'll be moving into a special spot in my boys' room, where he can remind me that handmade creations aren't always perfect... and that sometimes accidents decide what's staying with us 💕

On the bright side, my boys are about to gain a very cute fox basket, and I get a reminder that perfection and handmade don't always go hand in hand 😂

Plus, I've already started creating another one 🥰

Please tell me I'm not the only maker who has accidentally expanded their personal collection this way! 🙋‍♀️🤣

I promised myself I would show you some new ideas… so here is the next organiser design ✨🧺

This new beauty comes in a generous size of approximately 30cm x 16cm and 11cm tall 💕

It would be absolutely perfect for a nursery — ideal for storing baby creams, brushes, nappies, wipes, and all those little everyday essentials 👶✨

And the best part? As baby grows, the organiser can grow with you too 💛

Later it could become storage for craft supplies, stationery, makeup, remotes, hair accessories, crochet bits and pieces… or all those random little treasures that somehow never have a proper home 😂

The wooden base is hand varnished by me for extra protection and durability ✨

I love when handmade pieces can become part of everyday life while still looking beautiful in your home ✨

Next on my list is a HUGE 30cm round organiser… but for this one, you’ll need to wait a little bit 😅🧶

Something brand new has appeared in my creative corner ✨🧺

Meet my newest handmade creation — a basket organiser 💕

The very first one features four compartments, perfect for desk organisation, makeup brushes and skincare bits, baby essentials like creams and brushes, remotes, or everyday chaos neatly tucked away 😉✨

Sized at approximately 16.5 x 21cm (inner size 14 x 19cm) and 11cm tall, it’s such a versatile organiser 💛

Did I mention that the wooden base is varnished for extra protection and durability ?✨

And of course… my brain is already dreaming bigger 😂

Next, I’m planning to create a larger version with three compartments… and maybe later even a HUGE 30cm round organiser 👀🧶

At this point, the possibilities are growing faster than my cord stash 😅

Time will show where this new design journey takes me, but I’m honestly so excited about it already 💛

Please tell me… what colours would you love to see in the next organisers? 🎨✨

Why do I love Australian handmade? 🇦🇺❤️

Have you ever bought something handmade and thought… wow, someone actually created this with their own hands? ✨

Or wondered about the story behind a handmade piece — who made it, how long it took, or how much love and care went into creating it? 🌿

That’s what I love about Australian handmade.

Behind every handmade product is a real person. A maker, creator, dreamer, or small business owner pouring their heart, creativity, skills and passion into what they do 🌿

When you choose handmade, you’re not just buying an item… you’re supporting local families, creative dreams, and small businesses that truly care about quality and craftsmanship 💕

As a handmade creator myself, I know that every stitch, every colour choice, every little detail matters. Handmade pieces carry personality, love, and a story — and no two are ever exactly the same 🧵✨

And isn’t there something special about owning something unique? Something not mass-produced… something made just for joy, beauty, and purpose? 💛

So tell me…
Do you love buying handmade?
Do you own something Australian handmade that you absolutely treasure?
Do you love gifting handmade pieces?

I’d love to hear in the comments ⬇️

Thank you for supporting Australian makers, artists, growers, creators, and small businesses — your support means more than you know 🇦🇺🌸
