Think outside the box!
Here's a great idea to use an old item for an entirely new use. I recently visited a thrift zshop where I saw high on a shelf an old wicker picnic basket. My eye kept being drawn to it.I thought "well coolers have sure replaced the picnic basket!" It was like new though and very nice. Finally I just couldn"t resist. I ask to see it and the price. After a lot of fenaglin the lady got it down. She thought a while and said "how about $6.00?" Cheap enough, so I got it. On the way home the wheels begin to turn. I stopped by the hardware store an got 4 - 6 inch oak legs with attachment plates. Once home I washed the basket inside and out with sanitizing wash. Then I stained and varnished the legs to match the wicker color of the basket. After these dried I attached them to the 4 corners of the bottom of the basket. I though the top needed enhanced, so I rooted around in my piles of paper goods. Shortely I found a cool deco picture. I glued that to the lid and outlined it with a wide permanent marker to enhance the deco look.Unbelieveable, now I have an impressive place to keep my Country Living magazines. Wallah! Picnic Basket to Storage Basket! Sturdy enough to hold a lamp.
Could be used in the bathroom or kids room.
