8. Drape Cheesecloth or Stretched Webbing
To hide empty gaps and soften hard edges, turn to spooky fabric textures:
- Buy a standard pack of cheesecloth, steep it briefly in brewed black tea to give it a vintage, aged tint, and let it dry. Drape it loosely over the basket handle and rim.
- Take a tiny pinch of dollar-store stretchable spider webbing and pull it extremely thin across the exterior of the container. Adding a couple of plastic spider rings instantly completes the haunted house aesthetic.
