As you may know or will know now, I love to rearrange our home, it's amazing how a room can totally transform with just a move of a piece of furniture or some additions (or subtractions).
I have been trying to find a nice and inexpensive way to display the kids' soft toys which were piled away in a toy box, since the ones that we keep usually have a sentimental value to either us or them. Well I thought about these IKEA green baskets but always decided no since you can't really see the soft toys and it's just another place to pile them. But I thought, why not cut them out?
And so I took my IKEA membership card and cashed me out some coupons!!! Little secret, it's nice to have friends that use your card and earn points for you! These baskets were 199 baht each and they are very sturdy, we actually use one for our laundry (that's how after looking at it everyday I finally thought of a hack!).
So all you have to do is just cut an opening out and there you go! Easy hack but really cute display basket!
WARNING::: Please be very, very, very, extra specially, very careful when using a cutter to cut this basket (or anything with a cutter, they actually terrify me greatly and I avoid using one at all cost but my scissors were just not cutting it **pun intended) and I almost gashed myself several times! Also, always cut away from yourself!
And here's a close up, you can see it's not perfect (after cutting I also shaved away the sharp edges) but the soft toys will make up for that.
