Mr. Basketmaker Interview

A couple weeks ago, Eric was interviewed by our local newspaper, The Southern Standard. Here’s a quick pic I snapped of the reporter in Eric’s workshop…

The reporter, James Clark, came out and chatted with Eric for quite awhile. I talked to him for about 10 minutes when he first came in the house, but I left Eric alone in the workshop… If I was there I would keep talking!!! And he was here for Eric.

Following is the image from the paper. The story was part of their “Business Pulse” section which is Eric’s favorite part of their publication.

Overall, a great article. A couple misunderstandings such as, Eric’s baskets are only for display. Eric said he mentioned that some people don’t use them, ever. But all of Eric’s baskets can be used every day. That’s what I love about them.

Also, not confuse anyone, we do live in McMinnville but locally, they call our neighborhood “Centertown.”

I can’t believe James captured a great pic of Eric next to his bandsaw. How come Eric looks so grouchy when I try and photograph him??? Hmmmm…..
