Restored & Improved Vintage Shopping Basket

The original vintage shopping basket...Rusty and needed a little repair



I sanded the rust off, tack welded the little manufacturer's tag back on and straightened the bars. I just used a can of semi gloss white spray paint and sewed a fabric bag out of an old tablecloth. $20 and about 2 hours worth of work.... I can't wait to take it shopping to the farmer's market or an outdoor antique fair!
