Basket weaving is an ancient art form that uses botanical materials to create functional pieces that you can enjoy for years to come. Weave some fun into your week with this longer tote basket made for hauling tailgating food/supplies. It measures 10” w x 20” l, and the top of the basket (not including the handle) is 4”, so it is a shallow tote. Color choices and woven accents will be available to add some details to the finished piece. Despite its larger size, this basket is still a beginner-friendly project.
Course fee is $55. Garden members receive 20% off!<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/161042/t/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>

Dogsitter Wanted...Hello!&nbsp; I'll be visiting from Palm Springs,&nbsp; California to attend the Husker game on Saturday night, September 12th, and need to find a caring dog sitter for my soul mate, Max, while I'm at the game.&nbsp; I'm a UNL grad and a huge Husker fan, as is Max, but unfortunately,&nbsp; he'll have to watch the game on your TV.&nbsp; He's very mellow and low maintenance.&nbsp; &nbsp;He truly loves everyone he meets. He rarely barks or growls but he will shower you with lots of doggie kisses when allowed.&nbsp; I'd drop him off around 4 pm and pick him up around 9:30 pm. I'll be staying in Omaha beginning on Thursday, September 10th, so I'd be very interested in scheduling a "meet and greet" prior to Saturday.&nbsp; Please call or text Larry at 442-454-8200.&nbsp; Thank you so much!!&nbsp; Woof!&nbsp; That's Maxspeak for "I thank you so much as well!!"
