Wind a beauty? One blows over a basket (5-7)
I believe the answer is:
waste-baskets
'wind a beauty? one' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'blows over a basket' is the wordplay.
'blows' becomes 'wastes' ('waste' can be a synonym of 'blow').
'over' indicates putting letters inside.
'wastes' enclosing 'basket' is 'WASTE-BASKETS'.
