I’m having a bit of a basket moment. No, not a basket case moment! Haha.
Just loving baskets of all shapes & sizes as part of home décor & organising systems of any room.
So, I’ve done a bit of a round-up for you on my favourite baskets. Enjoy!
Chinara wire basket by SIXTH FLOOR from Superbalist
A touch of gold is on trend & will add some pizzazz to any room. R349 – 36cm x 25cm.
Weylandts POM POM SEAGRASS BASKET
This one is so playful that I will be tempted to carry it around as a beach bag or to a farmers market. R495; 40cm (L) x 40cm (W) x 27cm (H).
Branch Storage Basket by Love Milo
Local makers, Love Milo, know exactly how to create a statement item. This 100% cotton, waterproof hessian & leather basket can be used as a planter or washing basket. R656, 50cm x 45cm.
Felt Storage Basket from SIXTH FLOOR
How about storing your magazines, small blankets, towels or toilet rolls in this beauty? R199 from Superbalist. 40cm (W) x 30cm (D) x 30cm (H).
H&M – Jute laundry basket
If you have not yet been to H&M home, then do yourself a favour & pop on over to the V&A Waterfront or Mall of Africa or visit them online.
Available in Black & Natural White. R399; 35 cm (D) x 65 cm (H).
Embo Handmade Baskets
These baskets of many shapes, colours & sizes are handmade by a Joburg mom of three from waste t-shirt yarn or actual t-shirts. They’re available from Hello Pretty from R100 – R600, at Firehouse in Dunkeld or Perfectly Polished in Craighall. You can also email 07janine@gmail.com for orders / info. Be sure to follow Embo Handmade on Instagram to see more of these beauties on your feed.
Mia Mélange Ivory Floor Basket
I have such a crush on Stellenbosch-based Mia Mélange. Their baskets are made from 100% cotton rope & sewn together in a coiling technique. It’s hard to choose one product only, so after much thought I settled on the large Floor Basket. R1450, 40cm (D) x 45cm (H).
Do yourself a favour & follow Mia Mélange on Instagram.
Weylandts Patterned Wire Basket
Now this is the kind of basket I want next to the fireplace. Filled with logs. Or by the pool for towels. This gorgeous wire basket costs R695 that was handcrafted in India.
How about you? Do you use or love baskets in your home?
