Laundry Basket
Have a beach picnic. Tote items to
the shore in the basket, then flip it over and use it as a table. Hose the basket
off when you get home and it’s ready to go back to wash-day duty.
Serve drinks al fresco. Line the basket with a trash bag and fill with ice to make a cooler for impromptu parties.
Tame the sprinkler. Store a coiled garden hose in a basket; stash sprinklers, nozzles, and other attachments in the middle of the coil.
Protect plants. Place a laundry basket upside down over delicate plants during a rain- or hailstorm.
