The protector is generally made of clear plastic and sits inside your basket, protecting it from spills, stains and other damage.

Some collectors do not like the look of the protector inside their baskets. For these people, we recommend adding a Longaberger Basket Liner to cover up the protector and also add some charm to the basket.

Those with small children and/or pets will certainly want to pick up protectors for all their baskets. People who use their baskets as more than decorations should also use a Longaberger basket protector to prevent the wood from being damaged. Protectors are generally very inexpensive and can be found easily for all basket models.

Many retired baskets are very valuable even with the recent decline in prices. Many of these baskets were produced in very short runs like the 1992 Crisco American Cookie Celebration Basket. Other basket lines were produced for holidays or other commemorative events.

Immitation and fake longaberger baskets have been a problem. The recent decline in demand has seemed to diminish this market as well, which is great for real collectors. Remember to read our guide on how to spot an authentic Longaberger Basket if you are unsure about your purchase.
