French Market Baskets

I spent the weekend creating a piece of art from junk for our youth pastor, 
making some more French Market Baskets 
(I have a booth to fill now!) 
and working on some furniture.
Here's the sculpture....from concept to reality....








Very organic...I was pleased with how it turned out.

Here are the baskets








I haven't gotten to this one yet...
I love it though...don't you?


Art & Soul was in town this weekend and Saturday evening was vendor night. 
My SIL and I went to that and I found some nice stamps and French brocante

Awesome is right! You are so talented! Will you share what technique you used to age those lovely baskets?? They have the most perfect weathered patina! :)
