The other day I found this cute little birdhouse and tin wash tub. I needed something to put on a shelf in my bathroom, so I tied some jute around the washcloths and added a vinyl number to the tub.
This is so in-expensive and simple to put together!
Wash Tub: $1 from a dollar store.
Bird House: Also from a dollar store.
Washcloths: On clearance for only .50 each.
I had a hard time deciding what to put on the front of the tub. At one point I was going to put a bird... then a geometric pattern...and then finally decided on a three, because you know...Rub-a-dub-dub three {cloths} in a tub! (Really I just like the look of the three.)
Keep your eyes open at those dollar stores, you never know what little treasures you'll find!
***I was told by a couple of very reliable sources (my sisters) that it's been difficult to leave a comment on my blog lately. I've changed the comments to a pop-up window and it seems to have fixed the problem. I thought I'd let you know, in case any of you have been having problems as well.

Very cute idea and I can't believe it was so cheap!
Such a great idea! Heading to the dollar store soon. Thanks for sharing. Visiting from Serenity Now.
Terrific! Where can you find the vinyl letters without spending an arm and a leg? I can't wait to go buy this!
In Reply to Anonymous: I was one of the very lucky ones to win a Silhouette last year (I was so shocked!) so I was able to cut the 3 myself. I've used scrapbooking stickers for other projects before and it's worked, or you could cut out a number and Mod Podge it on.
One day I had this crazy idea to try spray painting contact paper to see if it would work. Well... the paint went on, but it took a lot of it and took a VERY long time to dry, lol! I had to try it though and it actually kind of worked. :)
this is very cute:) also looks more expensive than dollar store stuff.. thats why you rock!
This is gorgeous!
Great job!
P.S. I'm a Janet too! :)
