I'm still trying to find a half decent picture but I'll continue to search for one...
I went out before the wedding in search of fg baskets for them to carry their petals in. I totaly came up empty handed. I whipped intot he dollar store to get soem wrapping paper and I came across these silver buckets. Not too too big yet not to small. Just plain silver with a handle.
So i took them hoem and got creative. You have no idea just how perfect they were! They never broke or got dirty. And they could put anything they wanted in them.
All it took was some ribbon that I wound around the handle, some ribbon around the adge. I got some fake flowers and hot glued them onto the front. Made some floppy bows for the sides and walla! You wouldn't know that they were some cheap buckets I purchased. I give myself cudo's for that! lol

Great dollar store find!! I went everywhere looking for those buckets. I want to use them for my bathroom basket and coctail hour centerpieces. I found some at ac moore for $6 a piece ... pfff not paying that! I ended up ordering them for oriental trading for $7.95 for 12. Only problem is they are gold and I wanted them silver, so I bought silver spray paint at ac moore. I haven't actually done the spray painting yet, so I will let you know how it comes out.
