Planters

This is my favorite way to style baskets. Experiment with sizing and style for each plant. Make sure the plant is planted in a pot (with a saucer underneath if needed) first so that you protect the basket. Otherwise each time you water it, it will seep through the basket and onto the floor.

Display logs

Practical and appealing, store birch logs in a basket as part of your winter decor or any type of wood you use for the fire.

Store blankets

We currently store our blankets in a wooden crate, but I love the way it looks in a basket just as much! Let one blanket hang over the side for a "just thrown in there" look that's still stylish and put together.

Tidy toys

This is SO key in our home. We sort the types of toys that are in each basket, and Anchor knows right where to look for things. He can easily grab a basket and drag it out to the family room, which he does every day. They keep his toys tidy while adding style to the room.
