Hi beebonnet, Thank you for asking regarding my skin reaction. It was, fortunately not from the aquarium, as we so thought before. All the lab work and blood cultures determined that it was not bacterial from the aquairum or viral from any thing else. So, we haven't a clue what caused it but I am thinking that it could be from the pine needles and that I may have developed an allergy to pine needles. unfortunately for me, I am not going to stop making baskets because of that, however, my wrists are giving me such grief that I am having to take it slower then usual. I would be happy to make you a basket but it may take longer then my usual week. I have two baskets ahead of you but you can send now and if you are patient you will have a basket in about 3 weeks. Thank you for the offer and I would love the herbs, especially the basils.
Also, I might mention, the gourds are not painted. Those are all beads applied one bead at a time. Here is a close up of one that I am working on now.
Thank you . Let me know if you can wait for your basket.
