Such a sad little basket on my bathroom windowsill :(
I decided to cheer it up and make it a pretty cover for the inside.
I measured and cut out the panels then stitched each section to the base of the cover.
Once all of the sides were stitched together I hemmed the top and sat it in the basket, folding down the sides so you can see the pretty fabric.
How much happier is the basket now? :)
I had another sad basket as well in the bathroom so I made another cover for this one.
I have ordered a carpet for this bathroom which is being fitted on Friday this week so I am making a few changes now.
We have plain grey blinds at the moment with the blue spotty things and now the blue flower fabric scattered around the room.
I have ordered this blue spot blackout blind from Dunelm Mills last night for this bathroom so my new basket liners, the wash bag and cupboard top will all look great together.
I had my charity swap parcel yesterday from Helen at Moonstruck Creations. Such a lovely package, flowery peg bag, bracelet, heart, 2 ickle bees and some gorgeous chocs :)
Thanks Helen, love it all :)
Bee happy x

Wow!!You did a great job with the baskets!!They look really bright and cheerful now!!
ReplyDeleteAll so pretty!
ReplyDeleteYou will have to let me know whether the blind is any good. Have admired them in Dunelm, but have never been very successful with blinds from there - the winder part always breaks quite quickly!
