One of the young women whom create the "offering" baskets in Ubud, which are burnt in kilns around the temples. The baskets consist mostly of flowers and banana leaves, at one point we were near the temple and a gust of wind blew most of the contents that they were trying to put into the baskets away from the area that the weavers were sitting on.
