Update Picnic Basket

Remember this goodwill find?



Well, with a little work, some spray paint, and new fabric, I was able to get this






Here's a quick overview of how I did this:

First, I took everything out of the basket and cleaned it.



Then I spray painted the outside as well as the rim of the inside



I added some new batting and fabric and started putting it back together.





So, with the purchase of this basket, plus spray paint and fabric I already had on hand; This project cost was under $10.
Great deal compared to purchasing a new picnic basket for $50-$100

Now, I just need a picnic blanket and a picnic date with my hubby.
