reuse for moses basket

Options
I've been trying to think of a way to use an unneeded moses basket with one handle gone- so no use for a charity shop. Any good ideas out there- thanks joanna

    Take the other handle off and the mattress out, and use it as a plain basket for towel or suchlike?
    Some days, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps....

    I use mine (the wicker base part) as a washing basket.

    donate it to a pet rescue centre for a small dog bed/cat bed?
    give to a child for a dolly bed?
    Shoe Basket?
    fill with towels, flannels, bath goodies etc and keep in bathroom?

    thanks for the ideas. I think I'll try it as a washing basket for a bit - then the pet rescue sounds good.

    Don't know if you have an open fire but I used mine as a log basket.
