I managed to squeeze this delightful project in my very busy last couple of months . While, visiting my mother one weekend we drove to Lorena ( a little town ) down the highway from her home. There was this little antique shop. I found this wonderful little baby clothes hamper.I am always on the lookout for interesting containers for storage.
Cute size.Don't you think! Here I'm spray painting it Ivory I like to use Krylon indoor/outdoor in a can.
I love using the handle for spray cans it so much easier on the index finger. Great tool to have on hand.
First, I printed,ironed,and sewed on the fabric image.Now on to the covering process. I doubled my burlap and pull tight to get smooth and stapled . I covered the staples with a thin piece of cardboard.
I was playing around with what to embellish the side with and I decided to go with wired ribbon. I just twisted,scrunched the ribbon and wahlah!.I liked the way it turned out.
Almost to the end. If you are wondering what the inside looks like here is a shot.It is just the right size for a bag of poly-fiber to keep on hand.
Oh! I did add this beautiful flower jewelry on the front to complement the final look. Here is a shot of the front
and the top of the hamper.
Hope you enjoyed this post. I loved working on this one and it really did not take to long at all.I just love when a project comes together.
Create and Inspire,
Harriet
The hamper turned out awesome!
