Do you love Longaberger?

How many of you still love Longaberger baskets? Yes, they went out of business in 2018 but they were bought out after the bankruptcy by Xcel located in NY and the company is back in business. It's not the same though, but they still offer some nice baskets! 

Have you heard of Dresden & Company right in the heart of basket making country? Did you know that when Longaberger closed many of the weavers and several employees went to work there and helped get the company started and jobs lost were created for the weavers and those employees?

Did you know that Dresden & Company now weaves the baskets for Longaberger? Well, they do!

Have you taken a look at what Dresden & Company has to offer? You cannot tell the difference between the two company's baskets! Dresden & Co. does make many new baskets forms and some you would not believe! That is the talent of our weavers! Baskets are made with maple splints for durability and beauty!
