Thrift Store Painted Christmas Decor Basket
I’m working on switching out from our fall decor to Christmas and this Painted Christmas Decor Basket was the perfect size to create a Christmas vignette.
Painted Christmas Decor Basket
Let’s start with this picnic basket that I picked up at the thrift store…
A super cute picnic basket that was in pretty good shape.
I started by dry brushing the basket with some white chalky paint. I wanted to brighten it up a bit before I filled it with Christmas goodness.
Then it was just piling in the layers.
I placed my mini Christmas tree in first. It’s covered with two different wood slice ornaments.
I filled a little lantern with some red and gold bulbs.
The I filled the rest of the picnic basket with red and gold bulbs and some pinecones.
Then i just layered a plaid hand towel and a soft white scarf over the back of the basket.
Super easy, just using items I had to create a welcoming Christmas vignette.
Here’s how to make the wood slice ornaments.
