Hey Guys! I have been wanting baskets for my sewing table and finally got around to getting them done today.
Here’s what I did. I found these great baskets at Michael’s for $6.50 a piece on sale.
Then I used the same lovely gold frames I found at Dollar Tree to make my labels.
I took the glass and cardboard backing out of the frames and gave all three of them a coat of Rust-Oleum Painter’s Touch in Heirloom White.
Then I shantied them up a bit using Ralph Lauren Faux Antique glaze. You just paint it on and wipe it off with a wiping cloth or old shirt.
After those dried I took my cardboard backings and a small piece of burlap to the garage.
I used Elmer’s Spray Adhesive on each piece of cardboard and placed them on my burlap like this.
Then, I used scissors to cut around each piece of cardboard.
I used my Cricut to cut #’s 1-3 to use as a stencil. I stenciled a number on each piece.
So cute! After that, just put them back into your frames and you are almost done.
I used my hot glue gun to attach a label to each basket.
After I finished them all up I was ready to put them on my table. I had intended on having lots of pictures for you guys but I took them too late and the lighting is terrible. I did get a few though.
So, for just about $8 a basket I am a happy girl! Thanks for stopping by and let me know if you have any questions!

You just gave me a great idea for folded clothes for each of my kids to put away. They can each have their own basket to put away when I'm folding all the laundry.
