    Hi. Extra storage is always needed in a small bathroom. Hang it for extra towels and TP and other things needed close by. Hang it in a window as a planter. Good luck!

    Frances, I can't find any info on up cycling these old baskets. Probably because you can get them at the dollar store now! I would say just spray paint it in your favorite color!

    Hang on the wall and use as decor.


    Here's a project that might give you an idea or two:

    Mine is now in my patio. Found baskets that fit within it's metal structure.

    Then I bought succulents that like to flower in the patio shade.

    After 7 months it is perfection! It pot has 2-3 different succulents....

    It is hung off of front side, not wall side. About 2 feet from ceiling end

    hangover.
