Tanglewood Basket

(All proceeds go to The Josh Groban Foundation)

This lovely basket contains many handmade items, all with a Tanglewood Picnic theme. Highlights of this basket are TWO items autographed by Josh Groban, and a copy of When You Say You Love Me, autographed by the writer Robin Scoffield and the composer Mark Hammond. The centerpiece of the basket is a special edition cookbook, with unique cover autographed by Jack, Lindy, Josh and Chris Groban, and with special recipes not found in the standard cookbook.

Tanglewood is over but you can preserve the memories with this basket, or create your own memories next year. You're all set for a picnic at Tanglewood and a Josh concert to follow with this Tanglewood Theme Picnic Basket. This basket includes all the accessories you need for your picnic - a large picnic basket (anonymous), a battery-powered smoothie maker and mixes (anonymous), a pair of plastic wine glasses from Alice (HiTekGal), hot dog holders from anonymous, floral salt and pepper shakers from Alice (HiTekGal), a cooler with speakers along with a CD player so that you can have your own little concert from Mary (whyknott), a backpack/folding seat (HiTekGal), a food umbrella to ward off those pesky insects (anonymous), a Longaberger serve around basket with bowl and 2 liners, and a matching flop-flop napkin weight from Patty (smitty27). Mop up those little picnic spills with an embroidered Tanglewood tea towel from Mary Ellen (darmelon), and wrap those frosty wine bottles with embroidered towels from Kallda. Enjoy Boca Java instant beverages and cookies from Kathy (Kats) using your Tanglewood travel mug from Sandi (Sandi).

After eating, relax on your Tanglewood beach towel from Journey (Journey), cover yourself with your custom embroidered Tanglewood fleece picnic blanket from Mary Ellen (darmelon), rest your head on a handmade quilted pillow made by Deb (debjd), and curl up with the book "Tanglewood Tales" from Heather (fairygarden45). Drift off to sleep with your handmade sleep mask and custom Tanglewood tote bag from Mary Ellen (darmelon). After awakening, drop some of your Grobie pals custom Josh notes made by Leah (tempeste), and make some notes to yourself using your handmade note pad from Celeste (BrazilianGrobie) based on a photograph "baseball Josh" taken by Alice (sea alice), using Josh pencils and a pen from Journey (Journey).

You'll want to dress appropriately so that everyone will know how devoted a fan you are. Put on your embroidered Josh t-shirt made by Mary Ellen (darmelon), based on a photograph "baseball Josh" taken by Alice (sea alice), handmade bandanas from Mary Beth (foryou5), an Italian charm bracelet from Leah (tempeste), and topping it all off, identifying you as part of the "in crowd", a Per Te Cafe cap, autographed by Josh Groban.

To make sure everyone knows you're a Tanglewood fan, put the Tanglewood license plate donated by Sandi (sandi) on your car. Around your picnic blanket position Josh-related signs painted by Annie (amjpeace) and a Josh/llama door hanger crafted by Celeste (BrazilianGrobie).

When the concert starts, get out your glowsticks from Alice (HiTekGal), and use them lowered to follow along with your Closer sheet music from Journey (Journey). After the concert pack up your picnic basket and your totes a Tanglewood tote from Journey (journey), and a handmade Tanglewood/Josh tote bag from Lynn (GrammieLynn).

Once you are home, put on your custom apron from Brenda (black tassel) based on a photograph "baseball Josh" taken by Alice (sea alice), and get out your unique, special edition Per Te Cafe cookbook, stored in your tote made by Brenda (black tassel). Set your hot tea on your potholder made by Darene (oldbutinlove). Admire and enjoy the honeysuckle aroma of your custom soaps made by Meagan (SingingStar7). While washing your picnic dishes, gaze at your Tanglewood calendar made by Mary (whyknott), and your photos of Josh in concert in a wooden frame taken and donated by Journey (Journey). After everything is cleaned up and put away, frame your copy of When You Say You Love Me, autographed by the writer Robin Scoffield, and the composer Mark Hammond, and admire it on the wall.
