I asked for registration, limited it to 10, and all but one person was in attendance! Kathy brings all of the supplies that are required, and just needs water to make the basket materials bendy!</span><span style="margin-bottom: 5px; display: block;"><br></span><span style="margin-bottom: 5px; display: block;">Kathy was patient, kind, answered every question, and very hands-on with instruction and guiding the participants in making their baskets correctly but encouraging of personalizing each basket. If you'd like to see what the results were, check out our facebook and/or instagram!</span><span style="margin-bottom: 5px; display: block;"><br></span><span style="margin-bottom: 5px; display: block;">I highly recommend Kathy and this program. We had a lot of interest and registration filled up within the first week of publishing the event. I ended up having a waitlist but didn't have any cancellations. So I'm planning on asking Kathy back to do a different basket!</span><span style="margin-bottom: 5px; display: block;"><br></span><span style="margin-bottom: 5px; display: block;">Here is her contact information:<span style="margin-bottom: 5px; display: block;"><span style="margin-bottom: 5px; display: block;"><span style="margin-bottom: 5px; display: block;"><br></span>Kathy McMinn</span></span></span><span style="margin-bottom: 5px; display: block;">The Basket Sampler, LLC</span><span style="margin-bottom: 5px; display: block;"><div><div><div>153 N Milford Rd.
