A friend just sent me a link to your blog because she thought I would like it. She really knows me...I love it. I'll be back often. That was such a good idea with the basket.
You've got me repurposing all over the place! By the way, have you ever washed a basket? I did for the first time last night, and plan to repurpose it as a paper goods holder in my pantry - for the time being, anyway. Have to do a little "surgery" on the basket itself first, though. Thanks for all the inspiration you provide!
The rest of that basket would look great in the flower bed with a plant growing in it.
I have a broken tea cup in one of my flower beds. It is there as a frog home. I also have a broken flower pot as another frog home in a different flower bed. Roxie
Speaking of tidying and repurposing, and having read how you like to keep clutter under control... what do you do with Christmas cards (especially those with pictures)? I hate to throw them away, but I can't keep them all either. Any suggestions?
The bottom finally fell out of the basket, but it was too much good texture to throw away.
Now, a backdrop for a bud vase of wild twiggy branches.

Only you can find something to do with a basket bottom! Way to go! Lynn Marie
What a creative idea! You always have something up your sleeve.

That is cool! Now I find myself surreptitiously looking around for baskets that are starting to fray...
Really though, I can't tell you how many times I've rejected a basket at the thrift shop because it was falling apart. Gee.
BTW, for the reader in Georgia, my mom cut out the pretty pictures of her Christmas cards and had them grouped together and laminated into placemats.
