Entryway Storage

Entryways are often the landing zone for unsightly piles. Keep it looking tidy by using baskets for all the things your family unloads at the door (shoes, umbrellas, backpacks, etc.). Another bonus of baskets is how they can hide outlets and cords, as seen in this beautiful entryway.

Wall Decor

Add visual interest to your wall decor by hanging baskets. You can hang a large, single one or create a curated look by grouping different sizes, styles, and colors together. Check out my gallery wall blog post for more inspiration!

Baskets For Function

Keeping a basket at the foot of the stairs is not only cute, but also functional. I like to toss items in it throughout the day that need to go upstairs. That way I can do one trip instead of multiple trips up the stairs! It comes in very handy!!

Laundry Room Storage

Baskets are great multi-taskers in a laundry room! All those single socks…store them in a basket to easily sort through on the next load. Ugly box of dryer sheets…hide them in a beautiful basket. All those clean masks…keep them in a basket for your family to grab. Your laundry room will run smoothly and look polished.

Basket As A Planter

There’s just something so beautiful about plants in a basket. A lot of faux plants come in small, unattractive pots. Finding the right size basket helps the plant look more substantial and balanced. Baskets are a good option for real plants too. Just place a plastic plant saucer in the bottom of the basket and sit the plant right in! The saucer will catch any extra water.

Baskets for Firewood

Firewood in a basket is functional and adds one of the coziest decorative elements there is to your living room. This nostalgic and classic look goes well with any style of decor.

Basket As A Centerpiece

Add texture and dimension to your coffee table by using a basket for a centerpiece. It beautifully displays a grouping of objects or you can keep it simple with just one large vase. Use your creativity to find what looks best in your room.
