how-to: recover a canvas bin | d.i.y. | little free radical

Pin It


I was in search of some bins to coordinate with the decor in my daughters room, but everything I was finding were the wrong shades. I saw several patterns to make your own floating around pinterest & various DIY blogs, but I wanted something guaranteed to be sturdy for a 1 year old - to hold toys like blocks.

I was cleaning out closets when I found a couple of canvas bins I had purchased 8 years ago from The Container Store. I was trying to make up my mind about keeping them or not when I realized they were just a canvas cover attached onto the wire frame with VELCRO! And I had an "ah-ha! moment!" - why not replace the covers on these old bins with different fabric?



I tried it. It worked! and it was pretty easy too! I had 2 of them. it took me under an hour each (photos included).  CLICK HERE to Read More

    My site has a lot of unіque content I've either authored myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my authorization. Do you know any ways to help prevent content from being ripped off? I'ԁ gеnuinelу apρгeciate it.
