Laundry Basket Dresser

I wanted the dresser to look a little more like a piece of furniture since it was going to be in our walk-in closet, so my husband made cubicles to hold the baskets rather than rails.  He used .75" sandpaper-grade plywood, painted it to match our bedroom walls, and added matching baseboard to dress it up.  The towel bars on each side were added so that towels and washcloths could hang to dry prior to putting them into a basket.  An awesome side benefit is that the top of the dresser is a convenient place to rest the stacks of folded laundry as I'm hanging them up.
