Hello everyone!
I wanted to show you my new salvaged tarp laundry hamper from Restoration Hardware. I, of course, am not using it for laundry though. I bought it because of the wonderful old material and french writing on it. I ordered it during their 4th of July sale event.
I think it reminds me of an old mail bag or something. I have it in the family room holding extra pillows (as if I needed more).
So, even though it is marketed as a "laundry hamper", it could be used for so much more.
But, if I ever do decide to use it as one, it sure will look better than the plastic one I currently use! Ha!
Thanks for stopping by!

ReplyDeleteIt's pretty, Kelly! I would never have thought it was a laundry hamper!
ReplyDeleteIt is in your color palette and RH is filled with objects with French writing. My kiddo goes to college very near the outlet and I pop in a couple of times a year. I like that you used it in a living area.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great bag! I know you'll have fun using that in your home. Your pillows look wonderful in it.

ReplyDeleteKelly- What a great piece. I thought it was really old when I first looked at it.
ReplyDeleteQuestion for you- Where did you get your carpet/rug? That is exactly what I am looking for-one with an edge just like that- xo Diana

ReplyDeleteI love the way you're using it - very clever and inventive!
ReplyDeleteI love that Kelly! Very versatile too. Enjoy the weekend and hope you guys are cooling down there.
ReplyDeleteThats a smart looking container for overflow pillows...I stick mine in a basket with the extra sofa throws. I couldn't help but admire the glass door armoire with the white collection...it is so handsome!
