Dear AT,
I am looking for a woven plastic bin that can be used as a hamper.
I like that many seem to be recycled plastic and they really give a nice color pop to a room.
I've seen a few around online but none in person.
Does anyone know where I could find one in NYC or Brooklyn?
Thanks! Alice

for that matter, where can i find one of these, that is recycled, online? thanks!
I have one that looks very similar, from World Market. It was quite cheap...but after hauling it to the laundry room two floors down for about two months, the handles are falling apart. If you do laundry in your house and it doesn't need to be transported, I think it would be fine...
I believe they are made in Colombia, probably you can get them at colombian shops in the queens area of NY
I have seen something similar one here on the Home Depot website, was thinking about ordering one myself.
I don't know that they are recycled but landofnod.com has something very similar. enter keyword "strapping" to see all their products that are this woven type. if you are in the chicago or seattle area, you could see them in person in one of their stores.
Pearl River! They have them there! Downstairs, under the stairs with the rest of the baskets. Their stock varies sometimes so if you don't see them on your first trip, stop by again.
