This Old Basket: November

This Old Basket October

This Old Basket is a new feature here on Shakespeare's Peddler. Sometimes I run across (or go out looking for) older charts that are still so cute. If you weren't paying attention at the time, maybe you missed them. Or maybe you thought you'd go back and order one of these at some point, and forgot. Or maybe (as is the case now), reindeer pieces are popular, and I wanted to showcase a few of them. I'll update this similar to the way I update Theresa's Basket, but the fun thing here is that the pieces might be two years old, or ten! I hope you enjoy looking through some old favorites (and, oh yeah, they're in stock for purchase!)
