Danish heart basket

My husband’s grandmother was from Denmark, and he has really been looking into his Danish heritage lately. He’s making a display at his library branch that is all about Denmark next month, and I whipped up this basket for him today. He will bring it in and take a photo of his display when he finishes it.

Edited to add: finished display!

I love it! We made these out of paper in junior school. I feel very nostalgic right now.

I grew up seeing these in North Dakota, made by Swedish and Norwegian “old timers”

I love how you just “whip things up”! You’re amazing! I bet Mr. SBC was thrilled about this display addition!

And I, too, would love to see a pic of the completed display!
