What do you do with a basket from a hamper gift
when you have baskets literally coming out your ears?
Upcycle it of course!
I spray painted the basket in a soft grey.
This also gives it a little bit more water repelling protection.
From Bunnings I bought ready to plant annual pots.
A Pansy, sweet alyssum, and two polyanthus.
Next I lined the basket with a heavy clear plastic,
and poked drainage holes in the bottom.
A good quality potting mix filled it.
And the plants planted.
A whole lot of spring pretty...
that utilizes a basket that would have probably been lost
and forgotten in the storage shed.
and forgotten in the storage shed.
