Mine was a hamper, too. It didn't have a top, which was fine. For my sister's shower, I found a hamper that had a cover and made that the top. You can really make one out of anything!

For my friends bridal shower we just called it a wishing basket and had a big wicker basket for ppl. to throw all the stuff in and then the bride got to take the basket home too!

My mom made one for my shower last week. she took a plain plastic laundry basket and wrapped a colored platic tablecloth around it . Then she wrapped the handles of a broom and mop in crepe paper. She dressed it up with a pretty garland of flowers. It was really simple and inexpensive. I'll post pics when i get them.

For my sister's shower we got a tall kitchen garbage can, stuck a mop in it (with the head up) put an apron on the mop, and draped some tulle around the top of the garbage can so it looked like a skirt under the apron. You need to get one of those mops where the mop head is string like, so it looks like hair to kind of create a person out of the mop.Welcome New Vendors
