    This was so great; I was inspired to make my own version. I linked to this article on a post about it, over at Painting Sunny: http://paintingsunny.com/2013/03/25/before-the-blog-projects-part-ii/

    I have been painting wicker baskets for years! It is easy to do and really spruces them up! Best of all, whatever color you need, you can just paint it that color!
