Wire Basket Organizer

I have been trying to get my craft room organized for a while now and one day soon I will have it all put together! Then I will have to share it with you all. For now I will just be sharing some little projects along the way!  I made this basket organizer to store ribbon in or I might switch it up...but either way it is great for throwing supplies into. 

 I bought these two baskets on sale at Marshall's and I had the black candle stick, spray paint and glue. 

 First I painted the candle stick with Krylon spray paint in the color Coral Isle and let it dry.

 Once it was dry I glued the baskets to it using e6000 glue (which is amazing and I love it for creating things like this!) Since there wasn't much to glue the candle stick to I had to pick spots of the wire basket that were touching the candle stick. Then I placed glue only in those spots. Let it dry completely before trying to move.

 That's all! Then you just have to find something to put in the baskets.

 I placed some ribbon in my baskets, but you could use the baskets to hold any other craft supply or even fruit in the kitchen.

The April issue of Martha Stewart Living Magazine featured some of these baskets and some clever uses for them around the house. You can use them to hold cleaning supplies in the laundry room, mail in an entryway, flowers, kitchen pantry items, craft or office supplies, and anything else you need a place for. I love cute containers and baskets to hold simple things. It makes your space not only more organized, but fun to look at!
