This May, the Hoot Basket Gift Club went above and beyond — or should we say, doubled down — on delight! 💜✨
We’re calling it: this box was a basket weaver’s dream come true, stuffed with not one, but two of everything you didn’t know you needed (but definitely deserved). Whether you’re a longtime Hoot Club member or just peeking inside for the first time, here’s your behind-the-scenes tour of our “Double the Fun” box!
🧺 What’s in the May Box?
🌟 The Double the Fun Basket Kit
This box is centered around a super-sturdy double-wall basket—perfect for summer weaving! The kit came prepped and ready for action with all the reed and pattern goodness you need to create something strong, stylish, and oh-so-satisfying to weave.
📜 The Double the Fun Pattern
Clear, beginner-friendly, and packed with tips, this pattern guides you through each step with confidence. It’s like having Lorelea cheering you on right from the page!
🛠️ Tools ✂️ Curved Scissors
A little bend, a lot of brilliance. These curved scissors make it easy to snip your way into tight corners and awkward angles like a pro.
🧲 Two Magnetic Reed Holders
Double the magnets, double the magic! These handy tools keep your reeds from rolling away mid-weave. Once you try ‘em, you’ll wonder how you ever wove without them.
Goodies (All Doubled, of Course!)
👜 Two Hangry Canvas Zipper Bags
Snack stash? Tool keeper? Emotional support pouch? These stylish canvas zip bags are as handy as they are hilarious. Plus, who doesn’t love a pun?
“Double the Fun, Double the Snacks!” 🍫🧺
💌 Small Touches, Big Heart
💌 Two Inspirational Cards
These little pocket-sized pick-me-ups are designed to bring a smile just when you need it. Keep one for your workspace and tuck the other into a friend’s basket.
🔘 Two Wooden Buttons
Perfect to adorn your finished project or add a handmade flair to your next one. These cuties are small but mighty, just like your weaving wins!
🏷️ Two Leather Tags
Stamped with “handmade with love,” these leather tags are the perfect hug to add to your next basket or gift.
💜 Two Lavender Luxuries
One for calm. One for clarity. Pop them in your supply bin or tuck them into your snack pouch—these soothing little treasures bring a spa moment to your weaving day.
📦 Final Thoughts
The May box was more than just a bundle of supplies—it was a celebration of our shared joy in weaving, creating, and laughing together. Whether you wove solo, Zoomed with the group, or just swooned over the goodies, I hope this box reminded you: you are worth doubling down on.
