5 Projects You Can Make from Vintage Gym Locker Baskets
Don’t feet limited to only Vintage Gym Locker Baskets. Many of these craft project can be made with new or reproduction Gym Locker Baskets of all shapes and sizes.
Side Table with Storage
For a unique side table in the bedroom or den (living room) try using four to six of those Vintage Gym Locker Baskets slid into some short bookcases. Look for bookcases that are only about 2 feet tall. They can hold quite a few vintage Gym Locker baskets and are the right height for a bedside table
Organize Your Office Supplies
Ok, so I highly recommend cleaning your Vintage Gym Locker Baskets if they have been used before this. Simply wipe them with down with soap and water, then dry immediately. Any rust can be sanded off.
Line the Vintage Gym Locker Baskets up on your shelving in your home office or even along the back of your desk. You can place pens, paper clips, notepads, and almost anything on them. You can also rest jars in there to keep your office supplies organized.
You can line the vintage Gym Locker baskets with fabric to keep small items from falling out.
If you have a drill you could also use a screw to attach the Vintage Gym Locker Baskets to the wall. This is a great way to add vertical storage to a small space.
Keep Kids Organized
Large Vintage Gym Locker Baskets are the perfect way to keep the kids and all of their gear organized in your entryway or mudroom. Plus the kids can shut to hide clutter.
You can have the kids write their names on a blank index card. Poke a hole in the end and use a ribbon to tie their name on their own Gym Locker Baskets. Slide them under a bench in the entry way and you won’t have anymore clutter on the floor.
You can also use the large Vintage Gym Locker Baskets to hold gloves, shoes, hats, and even toys. The Vintage Gym Locker Baskets will look great and hide away the mess.
Food Storage
Traditional Vintage Gym Locker Baskets are perfect to use in the food pantry. You can use them to store potatoes and onions in place of less attractive bins. Just because it is the pantry does not mean that it doesn’t have to look good.
You can also use smaller Vintage Gym Locker Baskets on the kitchen counter or table and fill them with fruit. This make s a great centerpiece, adds storage to the kitchen, and even acts as great decoration. Pile those apple and oranges high and the kids can run by and grab one for as snack any time they want.
Tall thin Vintage Gym Locker Baskets are great as utensil holders in the kitchen. I recommend cleaning them and sealing the inside with some polyurethane to keep the porous surface closed. This way no bacteria or dirt will soak into the Vintage Gym Locker Baskets. You can also set a plastic cup inside to keep the utensils free from touching the basket.
Bathroom Storage
A large clean Vintage Gym Locker Baskets can make a beautiful way to display and store bath towels. Simple roll the towel up instead of folding them. You can place them vertically in the Vintage Gym Locker Baskets.
Small Vintage Gym Locker Baskets on the counter can hold hand towels.
