I used the one that was a little bit more distressed
Very carefully took it apart...
Broke them in half at the bend and took a pair of scissors and rounded off one end....
Took a old hat box lid I started placing them around and securing them with hot glue....
Digging into my old costume jewelry I found a String of Pearls and an antique butterfly pen...
I hot glued the pearls in a circular motion on a piece of the extra basket then attaching the little butterfly and cutting around small piece of wood and dry brushing a little antique white paint on it and then secured with hot glue...
All finished and looking fabulous!
Having fun with Eve's Saturday Projects! !

    Did you spray the basket with clorox first, or what would you recommend if I used baskets that have been outside in the elements?
