Laundry Basket

Wicker laundry baskets can quickly look worn. You can revive yours cheaply and simply with an application of clean, white spray paint, resulting in a professional finish. This is an easy way to paint wicker - the look is particularly successful with a basket which has an internal fabric bag.

Step by step guide
Step Number1
Laundry basket before

If your laundry basket has a cloth bag inside, take it out and launder it.

 
Step Number2

Vacuum the basket inside and out to remove any dust and dirt trapped inside the wicker lattice. Mask your work area with newspaper.

 
Step Number3

Spray a coat of Super White Primer all over the surface.

 
Step Number4
Laundry basket after

Apply light coats of Satin Super White until you have the coverage you want. Once the basket is dry you can replace the bag.
