Gift #38 - The Longaberger Basket

Today is my day to work and run errands for BG. One of my responsibilities which I enjoy the most is to take care of the tabletop flower arrangements.
The basket that I use for carrying the flowers and tools is this beautiful handcrafted maple wood basket given to me by a customer - Charlie. It is a famous "Longaberger Basket" and very sturdy and well crafted.
The Longaberger company's headquarters in Ohio is built like a basket but 160 times larger than the Longaberger's Medium Market Basket. It's 192 ft. long by 126 ft. wide at the bottom, spreading to 208-ft. long by 142-ft. wide at the roofline. It is a magnificent sight -- especially at night.
