Baskets From The Heart

Traditional and Pine Needle Basketry by Lynn Horine

After many years of working in the retail business I am now on my second career. That of a basket maker! What was a hobby has now turned into a full time job but above all I am now able to follow my passion for Basketry.

Being totally self taught there is no right or wrong. The freedom to create, to follow your heart is fantastic. Also it is such a joy to share my passion for basket's thru teaching others and giving demonstrations. Just recently I gave a demonstration at the Artisans Center in Berea, Ky. There I met so many wonder people from all over to world. It is an honor that they carry my baskets.

All of my Baskets are one of a kind. For my pine needle baskets (my true love) I use gourds as a base. Then I apply the pine needle coils to the top of the gourd and add just about anything! My favorite embellishment's are Black Walnut Slices and White Tail Deer Antlers.

Hi, Lynn!  I finally found you, beautiful sis-in-law---you are so good at everything and now I discover you are an artist of pine needles.  Here in Gaston SC where I live, there are many pine needles!  Mostly used for covering plants/trees, like a mulch.  I am amazed at what you have accomplished!  I told my friends, Becky and Mae (they lived in Pleasureville, KY prior to moving to Gaston 6-7 years ago and Mae is orginally from Oldham Co?) about your pine needle baskets as they have a lot of pine needles around their home!  Immediately, Becky wanted to know HOW does she make 'em?  I told her that I had no idea---all I know about pine needles is that when it is wet weather, they are slippery, thus I don't like them around where I am walking (have 2 replaced hips!).  Just want to say hi!  Never have forgotten you---you are special!   Love, Leta W.

You are invited!

It's been a long ,cold, windy winter!  Not to mention the ice storm.  It really has felt great to sit by my wood stove and spend the day on weaving baskets.  And now the time is almost here!  It's time for KENTUCKY CRAFTED:THE MARKET.  Can''t wait to see and talk with all my old friends and make lots of new friends too.  Be sure to stop at booth 425 and say HI!  The Market takes place in the South Wing at the Kentucky State Fair Grounds in Louisville, Ky.  If you will go to the website (just Google Kentucky Crafted:The Market) you can get a $3.00 off coupon plus all the time and dates.  I've woven 50 plus baskets this winter just to take to The Market.  It has been a real challenge but also very joyful and helped me get rid of the winter "Blues".
One more little tid bit.  Our family will be growing on Feb. 24.  We are adding another Min PIn to our family.  Madison (our 3 year old Min Pin) is now going to have someone to play with besides us old folks.  The new Min Pin's name is Milton.  He is all of twelve weeks old and full of energy.  Madison is a black and red Min Pin and Milton is a red.  Promise to post some photos of both before long.
Well, must go finish packing for the show.  Still have brochures to fold and a million small things to do.  Shall post my upcoming shows after The Market.  Ya all come see me-don't forget booth 425!

Big Thank You

A BIG Thank you to all who visited me at the Madison Chautuaqua and the Berea Fall Fair.  It's been a wild and wonderful year!  Have decided to take the plunge and have a booth at Kntucky Crafted , The Market.  Needless to say I will be making baskets all winter.  The show will be in Feb.  Then have a small show the end of April and another in Bowling Green in May for Kentucky Guild of Artist's and Craftsmen.  Plus am being blessed with commision's for my baksets.   Will try to upload some new pictures in a few minutes.  It's been so long that I've forgotten how!!  Will also add dates in a few weeks for the upcoming shows.
 
If you would like to order a special basket for Christmas, please do contact me a.s.ap.   It does take awhile as each basket is hand made and no two are alike.  Big news!  Have been adding new colors to baskets (everyone LOVES red).   And also am using colors in my thread choices.  Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks?  Feel free to call me anytime as I always need to come up for air once in awhile!  Love to All!!
