Unpacking my long hidden possessions into my new dresser was so much fun; I really enjoy organizing and purging things. While I was sorting things into the dresser I quickly realized that I would need something to store all my napkin rings in, to keep them corralled together rather than sliding all over the inside of the drawer.
So I decided to make this crochet basket. This is exactly the same basket I made here to collect all the mail and papers on my kitchen counter.
I worked on it quite furiously and when it was finished I filled it up with all my napkin rings and placed in the drawer.
Pretty, functional, and handmade. The best combination.
Have you ever crocheted something to help you organize your home? I have made several of these baskets, for a variety of items, but would love to hear what you have done.
Looks great! So much space for all scrap goodies :)
ReplyDeleteYou bet. I am slowly moving things in.
DeleteYou've inspired me to learn how to crochet. My very first project has been your basket, going up on my blog, with a link to your blog, this Friday. Wondering what to do next, thinking maybe a blanket.
ReplyDeleteThat is so exciting Jane. I can hardly wait to see what your basket looks like. I'm excited to see what you are going to crochet next. So happy you learned how to do this amazing, fun craft.
