I hate to throw them away, but I can't keep them all either. Any suggestions?<BR/><BR/>A reader in GeorgiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-39182648452200405522007-12-31T10:28:00.000-06:002007-12-31T10:28:00.000-06:00The rest of that basket would look great in the fl...The rest of that basket would look great in the flower bed with a plant growing in it.<BR/><BR/>I have a broken tea cup in one of my flower beds.

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.
