I got these bushel baskets for $2 a piece at a Pottery Barn Kids “going out of business” sale. Of all places! When I eyed them in the store, I knew instantly they would be the perfect addition to my laundry room. Hung up, they provide a practical solution for dirty laundry. It’s so nice not having to walk or trip over a basket on the floor.
I decided to line them with burlap. At first I was going to let the burlap hang over the sides, and tie rope around to secure it. But then I saw this jute ribbon at the fabric store, and knew it would work even better. I love how the orangey red stripe coordinates with the orangey red apron hanging in the room.
You’ll see here just how easy this project was. I stuck the burlap in the basket, and cut around the top edge.
Then I hot glue gunned the burlap to the basket rim. Then did the same with the jute ribbon on top.
I glued the inside and outside edges of the ribbon last.
Super easy, no stitches required.
