DIY Beach Striped Hamper

October 29, 2013 By Meegan 2 Comments

Recently I have been working on our master bathroom.  It has been looking a little boring, so it needed some refreshing.  I am happy to report she is almost done.

One of the final touches is this DIY Beach Striped Hamper.

It looks pretty good, right?  Hubby’s favorite color is orange, so I compromised and used an Antique Coral.

I am trying to bring a few masculine areas into our home.  And, the bedroom and bathroom are 2 of the rooms that have needed that touch.  I started out by making a Stenciled and framed Book Page Quote.  This is a quote Hubby has said to me for years.  Visit the post for all the details.

After making the quote, using the same colors (antique coral from Valspar and flat white) I gave my Bathroom Tray a Beach Stripe Makeover.

Now onto one of the last projects for the bathroom.  We have had this hamper for ages.  Honestly, I can’t even remember when we bought it.

It definitely has seen better days.  BUT, I do like a rustic look, and since I have been changing everything else, why not change the hamper, too.

Using the same idea that I had used previously on the bathroom tray, I got to work.  It literally took me just a few minutes to finish my DIY Beach Striped Hamper.  I decided I didn’t want the stripes to be the same width.  So, do you know what I did?  I followed the lines on the hamper weaving!  How EASY PEASY is that?

Now the bathroom and bedroom are coming together with a little more masculinity with my DIY Beach Striped Hamper.  And, adding another color with my whites and blues brings balance and variety.

What are some of your DIY projects lately?  I would love to hear all about them.
Thanks for joining me today!
Make it a terrific Tuesday!
