Spray-Painting Wicker

By cathigs

I need help! I have these cool Madras baskets around my home for storage and would love the free dresser I picked up to look the same. I don't have a picture of the dresser, but it's all white. The pictures below are pretty close.

Lampshade Ideas 2:

I am open to different styles, SHAPES and colors. But it's my fav color- couldn't resist it!

Lampshade Ideas?

Twine Twicks- Great Storage Idea For Ribbon, etc.

By cathigs

Got this idea from Martha Stewart- IKEA has some colorful funnels in two sizes that work for this as well, but should be hung off a rail of some sort. I used these in my wrapping workspace I put in my office closet and they work GREAT!
