Creative Ideas For Decorating With Baskets

Most of us have old baskets tucked away in our closets, attics or storage rooms. I love decorating with baskets and incorporate them in my Country style home whenever I can. They are great for storage but can also become great backdrops for interesting vignettes and displays.
I especially love old picnic baskets. They are usually large and can hold a lot of goodies but if you open them up you can create a pretty display with them. This picnic basket was filled with an old cookbook, a vintage thermos, and some pretty dishes creating a pretty display perfect for a kitchen.
With a little creativity you can re-purpose old baskets and create new decor for your home. This thrift store basket was flipped upside down. A plastic charger plate was glued to the "top" and painted a festive lime green making a pretty pedestal that would look great on any tablescape.
Baskets can be easily painted to match your decor and there is so much you can do with them. For more ideas please visit my blog.
