Sassy Kat Bucket

This is the Sassy Kat bucket organizer made to fit over the kitty litter buckets. If you don't own a cat, you probably have friends that do. I'm into recycling everything we can in order to save our landfills. The pattern is in PDF format and there are no shipping charges. See more at bucketsgonewild.com.

MUG BUCKET & NEW SASSY KAT BUCKET

Kathy suggested the following: On the silk Mug Bucket, I would possibly embroider the recipient's name or greeting ("for Georgia with thanks, Kathy" or "I belong to Kathy") or some little quip like "Live, Love, Laugh" around the top. Or cutsey "Kathy's Krafty Bucket". If it was a gift for a teacher I would suggest embroidering apples and a-b-c on the outer pockets, if a gift for a new baby doing "baby" items or abc's. Depends on the reason for the gift. It also makes a great gift for a college student's desk in the school colors.

I have one I bought years ago, commercially made, and I use it on my sewing/craft table. I stuffed one of the side pockets and covered the stuffed pocket top with fabric and use it as a pin cushion. It has so many possibilities.

The Sassy Kat Bucket would be cute covered with maybe canvas and the little kids could use it to carry their sand toys. It's also sturdy enough that they could sit on it. We have a very small (2x4) raised sand box/water box for our 1 yr. old grandbabies to play in and the Sassy Kat Bucket is just the right size for them. The bigger buckets make great "storage" seats for Polly Pockets and soldiers and legos and all those small toy sets. That's something we used when our own kids were little. I covered the lids for seats and the kids painted the sides with pictures.

Just some of my thoughts. Aren't buckets wonderful !!!

I made the Mug Bucket pattern in silk Dupioni for a friend and then couldn't part with it. I plan to make another and embroider on the pockets and possibly around the top. I have received some good ideas that I will post later.
