This isn’t the first time I’ve spoken about my love for baskets in the home.

I’m sure it won’t be my last time either.

My favorite storage solution is to always add a basket!

In fact, almost every room in our house has at least one basket in it.

Since I added a few more to our home decor over the summer, I’d thought I’d dedicate a post to storage and decorative baskets here today.

A beautiful basket not only serves as a great way to store so many different things (toys, blankets, stuffed animals, firewood) but baskets add both warmth and pretty textures to a space as well.
