$5 Find WooHoo!


I love anything metal, chippy, and with wire is a bonus for me. I found this old laundry cart for $5. The wheels were in bad shape, but I knew I could fix them. I just had to spray the wing nuts with lots of rust blaster, remove them, and add several washers. It will probably end up for sale, but I might keep it for a bit.


The side of it is even perfect to hang my old sock forms on. One of these days, I will makeover my guest room, and then they are going on the wall in there.


I didn't put much thought into filling the basket. I just added some fun stuff I had around, and some shoe forms. I collect them too, more old metal.
I can see this would be so fun to change for the seasons.
