Bamboo Baskets Make Decorating Easy And They Go With Your Bamboo Floors
Picture a couple of young former college dorm mates just starting out.
New apartment and lots of ideas, but very little money due student loans and other bills.
But, with new careers, these young ladies want to be able to entertain and have an apartment that looks nice when they do entertain.
Without a lot of money available for decorating, imagination has to play a major role.
The basic bedroom furniture brought from the dorm rooms would do, and maybe a small investment by each of them in a dining area and living area.
Now what? They need some inexpensive touches that do not look like old and handed down, but rather would add a unique touch to their little home.
Take a little time to decorate and make the place look homey and then try the new look out on the parents.
Enter the idea of bamboo baskets.
There are so many ways bamboo baskets can be used to add a decorative touch to a home or apartment, in just about any room.
They filled a bamboo basket with small hand towels, fancy looking soaps and creams and put it in the bathroom.
Throughout the apartment this theme of bamboo baskets was able to be used.
Since they are pretty, inexpensive and functional, there is no end to the uses to which they can be put.
Bamboo place mats in the dining area, bamboo mats on the floors to separate one type of living area from another, and bamboo baskets to hold magazines and other paraphernalia.
Large bamboo baskets in the shapes of vases were used as lamp bases.
Vases such as these, but even larger, became table bases in the bedroom when a piece of round glass was placed on it.
The bedside clock and lamp fit nicely on these impromptu tables.
More bamboo baskets were used as laundry baskets and flat bamboo baskets were perfect to store towels in to make up for the lack of a linen closet.
Bamboo is a very neutral material that goes with everything and if you use imagination and good taste, there is no end to the uses that you can think of for bamboo baskets.
When these young people start to make more money, they can start to replace these items with real furniture, but they won't feel that they wasted money on furniture that is just going to b thrown away.
The fun and excitement of decorating your first apartment is enhanced when you know you are using lots of imagination and little money to do it.
