Technique/Tip Tuesday--Take Care of our Hands

My hands can get so dry this time of year and having them in reed water does not help. Here is a simple tip to help keep our basket weaving hands soft. When you put water in your bucket to soak your reed, just put a small squirt of inexpensive hair conditioner into the water and swish it around. When I say a small squirt, I mean about a marble size amount of conditioner to about 2 gallons of water. I keep a sample size bottle of hair conditioner in with my basket weaving tools at all time. This will not hurt the reed and will help keep your hands pretty during the holidays and throughout the winter season.
Happy Weaving!
Love,
Nancy
