Organizing Baskets
There are so many different types of baskets, but not all of them will work in every area. Let’s go over a few of the most popular and determine where best to use the.
What is a storage basket?
A storage basket is a container that does not have a lid. They can come in different styles, sizes, and designs. The most popular are usually made out of wicker, plastic, wood, or cloth, with a few unusual ones made from rope or other unique materials.
Having so many options ensures you will find one that matches the style of any room.
Woven Baskets
Receipts are one of those things that are hard to keep track of yet important that you do not want them lying all over your home. A simple way to organize receipts is by using small woven baskets. I love taking it one step further and using a coupon file to organize receipts by month or type of receipts.
With this basket, receipt clutter can be easily contained on your desk.
Cloth Baskets
Foldable cloth baskets are another type of basket that can help keep a bedroom closet organized. Whether they are socks, t-shirts, or flip-flops, these baskets keep things organized in the bedroom and your closet.
Wooden Baskets or crates
Wooden containers are pretty durable and that means they will work well containing heavy items. Let’s look at a few ideas.
Kid’s Toys
Kids’ bedrooms are a great place to teach children to keep their rooms organized and durable baskets will help.
Use these sturdy baskets to hold toys, shoes, puzzles, or games. If your children are younger, you can use photos of the item kept inside to help your kids know what belongs where.
Canned Goods
Organizing other parts of the home is easy with crates. You can use them in any room including your kitchen pantry. Because they are made of wood they will be durable enough to hold heavy items such as canned goods or jars.
Books
Children love to read books and having an easy spot to hold the books can be helpful especially if your kids are younger.
A wooden great is a great way to hold books allowing them to be stored on the floor where your children can access them more easily.
Wire Baskets
Wire baskets are a great organizing tool because they allow you to see what is stored inside. A good area for this style of basket is in the entryway.
Use them to hold shoes, scarves, pet toys, or bookbags.
Round Baskets
If you have a lot of items in your family room, wicker baskets may be just what you need to help. Use them to hold games, puzzles, extra throw pillows, or blankets.
These baskets are not only pretty they are easy to use as well. Keeping this family area neat and easy to keep that way.
Plastic Baskets
Flexible plastic baskets are affordable and work well for anything you want to store inside. Here are a few ideas.
- In a playroom to hold toys
- In a pantry to hold paper goods
- In a bathroom to hold towels
- In a family room to hold pillows or blankets
Hinged BAskets
I love to reuse what we have in our home to organize. These picnic baskets show just how great this tip is.
Picnic baskets work great to hold just about anything, and bonus; they look great sitting out on a shelf.
Cloth Baskets
Linen closets are a great place to use cloth baskets. Use them to hold sheets, linens, or personal items, transforming a chaotic closet into an organized space.
DIY Baskets
If you love to craft, this is a great way to use your skills around your home. You can knit a pretty basket that will look beautiful on any table. If you love woodworking you can build a crate that will fit where you need a bin.
Retro Baskets
Lastly, old baskets inherited from grandma can be a great organizing tool. With a little paint, you can bring it back to life and add fun to any room in your home.
If you’re looking for a fast and easy way to get your home organized, basket organizers are the way to go. By using organizing baskets, you can quickly and easily declutter your home and make it more stylish and inviting.
