Damper Hamper

We’re talking hampers today. Exciting, I know…
I’ve had this hamper since I was a freshman in college.

Yep, it survived 2 years in the dorms, 2 years in an apartment, 6 months in storage, and another 2 years in an apartment. But, my gray/black/white bedroom finally got the best of it.

I was in Hobby Lobby two weeks ago buying fabric and I decided to look at baskets for the bathroom. I wasn’t even thinking about hampers until I saw it - black and beautiful, but with a $50 price tag. Yeeeah, I’m not paying 50 bucks for something that holds dirty clothes. So, I decided to hold out for a 50% off sale.
So, last week I was back at Hobby Lobby to buy the 200+ Follower Giveaway prize and I decided to check the basket section. And guess what?! Baskets and Hampers were 50% off. Giggity! I grabbed the last one and ran to the check out…and then forgot it in my car all weekend. Oops!
Sunday my brains came back and I finally got the hamper out of the car and into the bedroom.

A small change, but a great one!

  1. Our hamper is in the closet...it's an open linen type basket. When I lived in my condo, I had it right in the tiny laundry room off my bedroom. So I've never had a pretty hamper--but this one is cute!
