Stacey Solomon admits she doesn't want to fork out £20 for a stone bin, so transforms one for £3

SHE'S the queen of using her DIY skills to transform ordinary products into something special.

So when she wanted a stone bin for her newly-renovated bathroom, Stacey Solomon decided to enlist her creative flair instead of forking out £20 for one.



"Wanted a stone bin but they were like £20 so I bought a £3 one from Amazon and sprayed it with some spray paint," she explained in a post on her Instagram Stories.

"I love it!"

She added that the "picture doesn't do it justice".

And, to make it look even more stone-like, she's planning to spray another, darker, colour on top.

She also used some leftover 'mermaid' tiles to jazz up her toilet brush.

“I just stuck them on with leftover tile adhesive," she explained.

“Now I just have to let it go off then I'll grout & then I'll put the same sealer we are putting over all of the tiles in here so that it's smooth and gross dirt can't get in the grout."

Stacey was very impressed with her DIY toilet brush and later added: “Loads of you asking what sealer I'm going to use.

“It was good old Steve who told me about it so as soon as he brings it next week I'll share exactly what it is!

“Apparently it stops your grout getting dirty”.
