basket case.

I have an old basket; I found it on the side of the road; it has been a basket of blankets; I have loved for a few years it in its old, falling-apart glory. But it's time for a renewal – it needs some new life! We all know I love a bit of DIY so now to decide what to do... 

Here's some inspiration I found to bring some new life to my basket; only problem is, they're all so beautiful I might need to collect some more baskets!!

Dip-dye baskets look great. They bring freshness and colour but still maintain the character and life of the basket.

Who doesn't love a bit of fluro?!

Add a cactus painting (or some greenery), and I'm sold!

I'm also loving something metallic – adding a little bit of class and shine.

Or the classiness of the black:

But can I really go past spots and pom poms?

So many options and so many decisions... I'll keep you posted on what I decide (when I get around to doing the project!). What one do you love?
