Longaberger 2015 Christmas Baskets: Inspired by the Great North

Aren't you loving Longaberger's 2015 Christmas Collection Baskets and other products?  From the Fair-Isle-look basket weave to the snowflake design Tie-Ons to the WoodCrafts Bear and Moose, you can bring northern design into your Christmas decor too!  

One fun thing about going to the Bee (Longaberger's Convention) each year is getting insight into new products.  The Great North was the Longaberger design team's Christmas inspiration this year, and you'll see its bold red and icy blue snow colors in this year's products.  The repetition of patterns as seen in Fair Isle designs are apparent here, as well as northern animals and even spruce trees.  The Snowflake Block will even add a dash of holiday color to your words.  Head to my Longaberger website (link at the right!) to see it all.

These sweet weavers and others were "on duty" when we toured Manufacturing on the last day of the Bee.  This was a self-guided tour this year, and we saw many interesting things!  As always, the weavers were friendly and willing to visit and share their experiences. This striking blue and white Holiday Host Yuletide Gatherings Basket Set was one treat we spied.  Won't this color be great throughout winter?

Have you noticed the "under-one, over-two" pattern in the colored accent weaves of the Yuletide Greetings Baskets?  It amazes me that Longaberger still continues to produce creative, useful designs after all these years.   You'll want to use your Yuletide Greetings Basket to hold those very special yuletide greetings--the warm wishes held in the Christmas cards you receive.
