After Christmas Find - Galvanized Tobacco Basket

Hi Friends,

Yes, I went to Walmart today!

I didn't really need anything but at 75 - 90 % off, I was hoping to find

something I could use for crafting.


I found this galvanized 18" x 18" Tobacco Basket for only $4, while I was

 

checking out the After Christmas sales.


 

The Merry Christmas portion of the sign was held on with wire, no glue!

I was able to cut the wire and removed the sign easily.

I put this sign away for now, maybe I will use it next Christmas.

You could even paint the back of the sign to make this one item

into a third decorative item!

Now that's getting your moneys' worth.

Here it is after the sign was removed.

You could hang it on the wall and add a wreath.

I have instructions for this wreath here.

Or use as a tray!

 

These Tobacco baskets are priced anywhere between $50-$60 for this size.

 

 

 

I'm not sure if this is considered a recycled project because it was reused.

Maybe an up-cycle because it has been altered....or re-purposed

because it was used in a different way than it was intended .



Either way, I hope you find some after-Christmas treasures for you home.


Do you like to hunt for bargains after the holiday?


Let me know if you found something exciting this year.
