May Day Basket Memories

 I am remembering this morning the tradition of making woven paper little baskets with my Mom when I was little which were then filled with flowers - probably violets but I don’t recall for sure. I would then take them to the neighbors and (and them on their front door knob. Did anyone else do this?

  2. Yes!! I think we made ours at school but maybe at home with mom, too. Wish I had a picture. Can't remember what we made them out of, I think we wove strips of paper. We also danced around the May pole. Nice memories. Thank you for the reminder. I bet your May baskets were especially sweet with the little violets tucked inside.
