Market Baskets...

I love this picture. I took it in Monterosso, Chinque Terra, Italy in 2007... It is probably one of my favourite places in the world.

 
 
This particular pic was snapped in a fresh product market. Nothing has been styled, just naturally set up this way by the store for a normal day's business. (The cheeky cat hanging out in one of the baskets wasn't for sale!)
I just love the natural colours, contrast of textures and the effortlessness of this composition. It reminds me of the character I want my styling to achieve.
This photo has a spot on my wall at home and is what inspired the Lightshade-out-of-a-basket idea.
 
But after looking online its seems it well trialed by other DIY'ers- and they look fabulous! Here's a few that caught my eye...
