Found this old basket in my friends shed, she was throwing it out as it had been there for a very long time, so I had to reuse it. I was thinking of using it for when I get new crafting stuff to place there and leave it on my desk, I get new stuff most of the time and I just put it away and then forget about it. I have many items in my craft room that have never been used. the basket was very dirty whit I got it, so after scrubbing and cleaned it all I first wanted to paint it, yet after seeing it when was all clean, I loved the rustic look, so decided to leave it. I added some ribbon around the handle and then some small red flowers around the rim. It must admit that it looks so pretty now.
Happy crafting!
What a nice basket, it does look very pretty! :) I have my own--it's smaller--but I keep things like sticker sheets/pads and other goodies like that in them. By the way...is that owl print tablecloth in the background of your pictures? It's super cute! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I just love owls :)
DeleteIt doesn't even look like the same basket! Great idea to keep your new things in there!!
