This is absolutely beautiful! I have the exact same hamper and never once saw it the way you have-Brilliant and Bravo! Another fun and festive idea I had for bathroom holiday decor is to tape tinsel to the to the outside of the seat and some at the top of the tank. It's a real pick me up in the loo, an often overlooked place for jazzy holiday decor. One thing I tried in my quest for a more happinin' powder room was putting one of them floating candles in the bowl. Sure, it was down right classy looking but I should have used better judgement.
Oh, hammer9876-you got my brain gears a turnin! I'm thinkin of having my old man make me some plywood cutouts of just the heads of the Holy Family, I can paintem up nice and placin em atop 3 lighted hampers- like I already have!-hooray! and I've got one fancy shmancy nativity scene! I'm so excited now!

Good use of a bored afternoon. I can imagine a whole slew of these in the yard and people driving by going, "What the ...?" Makes a much sense as putting lights just around a tree trunk!
