Wicker Laundrey Basket.... smells
I picked up a nice-looking basket hamper from Home Goods. Looks great and was surprisingly inexpensive at $30. It even comes with a canvas laundry bag liner.
The problem is that whatever material the hamper is made from actually SMELLS. I mean... I know its the wicker... But a house guest might just assume there is some super stinky laundry in there. Which is not the case and embarassing.
I don't feel like returning it. Maybe I should have upgraded to a better basket material. Maybe there is a special kind of air freshener that I can drop in there?
Help me cheat on this one ladies 
Thanks!
Re: Wicker Laundrey Basket.... smells
both great ideas! I will prob need to try a combo of both!
Very helpful, thank you!
Ultimately, I think the manufacturer used a lesser grade wicker that just has a funny smell to it. Not chemicals... a sort of wood of some kind I think. I was wondering why it was so inexpensive!
if airing out / fresheners don't work, I might just repurpose it to the garage and use it out there for something. Then suck it up, spend the darn 60 bucks and get a nice hamper! LOL
too funny... thanks again!
