If you own Longaberger All-American or other patriotic baskets, I hope you're ready to use them this weekend for the Fourth of July! Since this basket group is up over my kitchen cabinets, I probably won't be pulling them down to use, but I enjoy seeing them displayed through the summer.
These American Celebration Baskets from 2007 and 2008 are a unique group, with Rose and Denim Banner Weave. The Large Boardwalk Basket on the left was a prototype created but never produced. The American Celebrations Medium Boardwalk Basket made the cut and was sold in April 2007. The little Tidbit Basket (atop the Premium Crackers tin) was also available in 2007. The 2008 American Celebrations Oval Market Basket is perched atop the big Tour with Me American Celebrations Picnic Basket, which is a monster with a split lid with leather hinges. Like the Large Boardwalk, the Picnic is a relatively rare basket, since a Longaberger Consultant had to register and take a group of 15 or more guests to Longaberger Homestead in the summer of 2008.
You can find a special American Spirit Basket on my Longaberger website currently and find many past patriotic Longaberger Baskets you'll enjoy in my eBay store. Every Longaberger Basket is a patriotic one, since they are created by American craftsmen!
