Stupid Question of the Day From Christine (SQOTDFC)

I'm not going to make this a daily thing girls...but yes, I have yet ANOTHER stupid question.

I'm trying to buy the bathroom baskets, slipper basket, Rose Petal Cone basket, and Program basket from ebay (I'm a ebay whore these days) - and Um...well....What are the baskets called? Besides...'Baskets?'

I want a set - all the same size, color, and I can't find that....putting in 'basket' in the search bought up about 6000000000 things!

Re: Stupid Question of the Day From Christine (SQOTDFC)

Thanks Cindy! It's more of that I'm 'Pretty Sad' - I can do sit here and work with millions of dollars for my firm...but when it comes to the 'simple tasks' - I'm a complete DOOFUS (sp?)

I tried wicker....didn't really get what I needed. I think I'm going to have to purchase them in person...maybe it's better that way - I can see the size and such up close and personal.

What street is it in NYC where they sell all those baskets? I've seen it - but I don't remember what block.

I'm not kidding either - I swear there's a block where they ONLY sell baskets.

Wicker baskets?

I think that's your best bet Christine. If you find a specific one you like. You can search a seller's other auctions or email them to see if they have the basket in different sizes.

Re: Stupid Question of the Day From Christine (SQOTDFC)

Honestly - when Michael's has a sale, that's the best place to get them.
Tell me what color/size you are looking for - I'm going this weekend. I'll take some pictures.

Just ones that match, rectangular, but nothing too deep...I'm going to spray paint them gold or white anyway....

Give me a price range. I wouldn't mind picking them up (if you like the pictures) and meeting you. I work in NYC as well.

Take a ride to Nassau then. At least it will be worth it. But I go to BK alot and they have some nice stuff over there too!!!!

86th St has a bunch of stores that sells stuff like that.
