Bicycle Basket Re-Do
I recently purchased this plain, simple wicker bicycle basket for $25 at Kmart, but it was just too plain...so this weekend I finally got around to making it beach chic. I painted the entire basket with white gesso, added the linen basket liner, glued on shell buttons and some scraps of old lace trim I had. I then glued the tin heart with a hot glue gun and decoupaged the collage on the heart and sealed the entire piece. Now I need to find the perfect bike....

love it! I have a vintage one with leather straps, I just cannot bring myself to paint it, but I could line it and put some fun things on the outside. Thank you!
