Using baskets as planters make for a stunning decorative feature to house a gorgeous tree. Baskets are lighter than typical planters, making it easy to move from room to room. Consider using larger baskets for floor plants and smaller ones for tabletop arrangements. Place the pot directly inside or replant the contents using a liner to protect your basket. You might also want to be sure you remove the plant and clean the stand with a dry cloth occasionally. Woven baskets complement the natural elements of plants, creating a harmonious and organic look.


Organize Your Bathroom

Upgrade your bathroom storage by swapping out traditional shelves for woven baskets. A gorgeous basket can keep things unseen, like dirty laundry. Roll towels, organize products, or store soaps and lotions. Tuck them away on a floating shelf in your bathroom to hold other handy knickknacks out of sight, keeping your space tidy. Woven baskets also work well in the bathroom for hand towels or in the closet for smaller accessories. It also adds a touch of rustic charm to your bathroom décor.

3 ways to pick the perfect woven basket

1. Consider the size

Woven baskets come in endless shapes and various sizes. If planning to use a woven basket to move from room to room, to hold toys easy for young ones to lift on their own-to-house cleaning supplies, you will want to opt for a smaller, lighter basket. If for storing off-season clothes in a closet or a basket that will remain in one place for a while—it can be heavier and bulkier in size.



2. Pick a style that suites your home

Select a woven basket that best fits your existing décor and your style.

  • Seagrass baskets tend to lean more coastal or boho chic.

  • Whereas Hyacinth baskets are more of a classic look.

  • Natural materials such as palm and rattan give your space an airy feel.

  • Rope baskets can help store things while blending in with almost any décor.

Of course, selecting a basket that is a new style to you can be a great way to change up the aesthetic in a room.



3. Find the purpose of the basket

As some baskets are pricier than others, determining their purpose before investing is a great option. A basket in the bedroom may experience extra wear and tear, whereas if placed in the living room to hold coffee table books or photo albums may lean more towards luxe.

In that case, opt to mix and match different baskets with durable construction of tightly woven rattan and rope.
