love. would definitely use for fruits to encourage my children to eat mote of them. wasier if they can see them!
..that would be "easier."
I have been eyeing these baskets since I got my Spring catalogs in the mail! I would love to use these on my kitchen wall for cook books that I use often! Or even in the office as magazine and file holders!
How do we enter? I'd love to have these.
That would look so good in my kitchen!
I also have been thinking of these since the new catalog arrived. I can think of so many uses for them in my kitchen, but my main plan was to use them in the guest bathroom. one for magazines, etc and the other for extra toiletry items for overnight guests.
I would love to hang these near our phone corner to corral cell phones, Notepads, pens and mail. These would get the clutter off my kitchen counter, making them a miracle product!
Exactly as you've shown them.... perfect for the onions and garlic in the pantry
My kitchen backsplash is tin tiles. I want to line the whole thing with these baskets for fruits and vegetables like clementines, oranges, onions, and potatoes. I love the design and the size! Perfet!!
Read the WHOLE thing! Mail basket in the kitchen is how I would use them.
aahhhh, I need this to help me organize my home office, gorgeously!
I have lots of ideas for this basket! I could use it in my office for envelopes and notepads. I could use it in the bathroom for wash clothes and sample size soap or shampoo. I could use it in the kitchen for lots of things - spices, fruit, dish towels, catch-all, etc. Thanks for the chance to win :)
I would love these for my home office, great for supplies and to keep things with in reach.
I just love the idea of putting fruit in in it. I can also see it with daisy's or filled with skeins of yarn. So many possibilities.
These would go on my office wall and each child would have a designated basket to put there school work in. No more school work clutter on my desk. :)
I could certainly use a million of these! One would go right by my door to catch the mail - maybe 2 would be better - 1 for outgoing and 1 for incoming. I would use 1 for my magazines; 1 on my desk (maybe 4 of those!); a few on my kitchen counter to corral the piles of "to do" mail cluttering up the counter; and a few more......just because I NEED THEM!
I would use them in my pantry to store all of those packets of noodles, mixes, etc. or hang on a wall for our mail - to un-clutter my island counter top!!
I have a place for it RIGHT NOW by the back door for mail!!!
I would use this basket to store my wrapping supplies. I would put my bags and tissue paper in it because they are all over the place right now.
I am trying to potty train my 22 month old, so I would use it as a "goodie" basket to choose fun things from when he is successful!
i love these baskets for office organization or in my kitchen.
I love this! I would use it to corral my kids' coloring books, paper, crayons and markers. Right now all that stuff is taking up valuable shelf space in my eat in kitchen! This would be cute and practical on the wall.
I might use these in a bathroom to hold magazines or would be nice in the kitchen for mail or cookbooks. I love how they are used in the catalog!!!
I love the idea of a fruit/veggie basket. Oh, soooo many ideas.
Love these baskets. Would use them in the kitchen to hold different types of coffee, hot chocolate and tea or grapefruit, oranges, lemons & limes. Would also use them in the office for memo pads. Willow House order forms and hostess names & numbers etc for quick reference.
I love that they have fruits & vegies in them! That's what I'd use them for!
Love these baskets...I would use them as you displayed, to hold fresh fruits and onions..etc. I have so many ideas for them...in bathrooms for magazines, next to our desk for papers and mail, the list goes on and on.
This at the top of my wishlist! I would use this basket in my kitchen: sitting on my countertop to hold some of my frequently used cookbooks. I also want 2 more for our class room (we home school...)! These would help corral school & art supplies.
i would put these beauties in my kitchen for collecting my mail!
I would love to have this hanging in my kitchen for onions & red potatoes.
The French Wire Convertable Basket would be great in the kitchen to hold rolled up hand/dish towels! OR in our daughter's room to hold some of her favorite bedtime books next to her bed!
I would use it for outting fruit in,like in the picture! I think that would be a great idea to help my child to want to eat more fruit..;) ksceviour at hotmail dot com
These are great! I'd get one for each kid to keep the school work and papers to/from school in so they arent getting lost in all of the other clutter. Plus it helps teach our children responsibilty- they know exactly where to find their things!
I would love to win this basket! I would use it on my pantry door just like the picture. My husband would thank me!
I would use it in my office...a few baskets would keep me ORGANIZED. 1 for parties that are coming up 1 for parties that have occured but not closed yet 1 for closed parties in the last 30 days
I would take colorful ribbon & run through them to match my daughters room. Then I would use them to store her stuffed animals in 1 & her school supplies-notebooks etc. Hang them on my back patio for hubby's BBQ supplies, plants or our outdoor plates, napkins while entertaining! Love these
LOVE these! I would line them with moss and fill with flowers on my patio!
Definitely would use this in my kitchen....or guest bathroom....or MY bathroom...lol
I LOVE THESE BASKETS AND COULD USE THEM IN ALMOST EVERY ROOM OF THE HOUSE I THINK THE BATHROOM, BUT WOULD REALLY LIKE THEM INMY HOME OFFICE.....CAN SO SEE THIS IN MY DAUGHTERS ROOM WITH A RIBBON RUN THRU THE WIRE AND A BOW OR KNOW TIED IN THE FRONT TO HOLD HER HOMEWORK PAPERS OR JUST HER *STUFF*
I would use one for each child in our family for their schoolwork and notes. Also, what a great way to keep all those invitations to parties throughout the year! Especially, all the graduation invitations all in one spot! No more searching!
This would be great for having a designated basket for mail! I love it.
Always be ready to wrap a quick package by storing scotch tapes on one side and ribbons/bows in the other!
I would use it on my laundry room/mudroom wall for mail. No more papers and bills on the counter!
Love, love the rustic style of these versatile baskets. I would use them in my kitchen as a stylish yet practical way to corral potatoes, onions, garlic and ginger. What a great look!
I'd use it in an office to organize...maybe the kitchen too!
This is my number 1 wish item from the spring catalog!!! We will use these to organize my kid's craft, coloring, and paint supplies. I LOVE these baskets!
Oooh I love these. We are starting to remodel our kitchen and because we eat lots of fresh fruit and veggies these would be a perfect addition to our kitchen. I know exactly where they will go!
I wouldeither use them in the bath for magazines and towels or to organize some of my scrapbooking supplies!! Love, love ,love these!!
I would put them in the office area. I would have my kids put their homework folder and library books in them. It would help them by having a place for their stuff to go. So we won't be running around looking for them before school.
deciding HOW to use them is no problem....I am thinking I need about a dozen of them, though! Magazines, cookbooks, mail, file folders.....geez, this baby will get a workout!
These baskets are so neat. They would be great in the pantry as well as on the kitchen counter for snacks and such.
I love this basket. I want to hang them in my laundry room and pair them with the Alfresco hardware. My kids need a spot for coats, back packs and important school info.
I love these! I would put one in my guest bathroom and fill it with all kinds of lovely toiletries like toothpaste, toothbrush,shower gel, shampoo, and fingertip towels draped over the edge. The other I would line with coconut fiber and plant some colorful spring flowers and hang on my patio.
Would love to use this basket for all of my Hair "goodies" in my bathroom! Would help de-clutter my vanity! :)
One of the many new items that I will definately have to have. One would be used in the living room next to the end table to collect 'all' the remotes, so they are not eaten by the couch or running with the kids!!! The second one will be where I put the mail when I come in the house!!! I just may have to have 2 sets.
I would use this basket for the mail that we need to keep and attend to later.
I would use these on our lani wall by the swimming pool to put sunscreen and fun pool items :)
So many ways to use these - maybe for guest towels? Or maybe I would corral my "picture of the day" supplies? Or maybe create a new place for my favorite recipes?
I've been wanting baskets like this to have a place to put our mail kind of like an "inbox."
This is such a versatile piece, but I think I would use it for towels in the bathroom. Roll lovely towels for your guest and add some personal products and it would add flare and be useful.
I would use these baskets to hold my hand towels in the bathroom.
Since my produce is safely tucked away in the French Wire Tiered Stand, ready for my family to snag a quick "healthy" snack from the kitchen counter, the French Wire Convertible Basket is turning a "free" wall in my laundry room into a gift wrap station... gift bags, tissue and spools of ribbon ready to be pulled through the wire openings as needed. So far I'm using two... hopefully I'll win because a third will complete the look and finish the organization.
I think it would look great as a decorative piece with a pretty bow weaved through it and a couple of old fashioned milk bottles filled with fresh flowers nestled inside.
These baskets could be used almost any where in your house. I would use them in my laundry room. Living with three boys and a husband, my laundry room is the only "girl" room in the entire house. It is my sanctuary. I would use the baskets to hold handtowels, fabric softener sheets, magic erasers, tide stain sticks, clothespins...the options are endless. Since I spend SO much time doing laundry, at least the rooms looks nice. :)
I would use it as a mail caddy or above the tub as a caddy for bath gels and soaps!
I put one beside each of my daughter's beds so they can put their book light and book in it when they are ready to fall asleep. Yah! No more books on the floor!
I love these baskets! They could be used for SO many different things. I would put one by the backdoor to hold mail and keys. One in the den to hold remote controls, etc and definitely two or three in the kitchen to hold recipes, fruit, spices, etc. Oh, and one in the bathroom to hold cute linen hand towels!
Guest towels, washcloths, pretty bath salts, and lotions for your guest bathroom!
So cute in a nursery...by the changing table! One filled with diapers and the other with baby wipes and rattles.
Perfect in my kitchen for the clutter on my counter!
This would be so pretty in my kitchen holding oven mitts! And it would coordinate perfectly with my French Wire Tiered Stand!
I'd love to use this organize paperwork, files, and notebooks. Ooo, or maybe my scarves!
I would use one in my newly remodeled bathroom to hold some pretty towels!
I think I would use it as a fruit basket or perhaps to put dish towels in.
Hard to pin point just one use. I have a "snack" door currently and would LOVE to replace it with the basket. It would make it so easy as the kids know they are allowed anything in it! Could also see it in our home office to keep things organized and with in quick reach.
looks like a great way to utilize our tiny tiny bathroom walls... we always need washcloths and such in that room, but have no place to keep it!
I'd love to use it by the front door for the kids mittens/hats/accessories!
In the mudroom/by the backdoor. I'd use one for each family member as a place where they can retrieve their mail, pick up signed homework for school the next day and corral cell phones, keys, etc.
Would be great for my kids' school assignments!!!
I love these!! I would use them with the compartments to hold fruit on the bottom one, easy for the kiddos to grab. I would use the top one to put small pots to grow herbs in.
I want to place one in my home office to hold paint swatches!
They would make a great mail caddy!
I would use it for fruits and vegetables and hang it next to my cute little shelf in my kitchen. Or I could use it for recipes! Love it
i NEED this basket to organize folders and paperwork in my home office. I already have a home for it on the wall right next to my printer!
Love these wire baskets! Cannot wait to get them in my office for organizing incoming mail, bills, etc.
My 80-something year old parents live with me and my husband, and we have a 10 year daughter. So, my days are never boring. To keep track of the multiple doctor's appointments, medicine lists and other things pertinent to running this household, these baskets would be perfect just inside my pantry door for quick access to inportant information!
I was going to say I would put my bills in it, but I don't think it's big enough. I like someone else's idea to put it in the guest bathroom. I would make it look adorable with some soaps, hand cremes and little towels.
I would use this in my bathroom to hold my hair dryer and brushes. So many possiblities!!!
I would no doubt put it on the perfect wall in my kitchen for it to hold mail and then one for magazines or produce like you guys have it displayed. love them!
I would use one in the family room to hold all the remotes and the other in the loft to hold the game controllers:)
Would like to have these in my office!
I would hang it in my bathroom to hold my hair dryer, straightener and brushes within easy reach to keep them off the counter.
I would love the basket next to my fireplace to keep pinecones in for starting a cozy fire!
I NEED these in my office to organize all of my papers, mail, items that need sorting and filing. I just love them!
I love these and would use them to store ribbon on the roll for my bow making business! I love how they look vintage with a contemporary feel as well. Beautiful product!!
I would use them to store my ribbon by the roll for my bow making business. I love how they have a vintage feel. Beautiful product!
I would definitely use these by the front door for mail. The top one would be for bills and the bottom one would be for tax information that comes in the mail this time of year. It might make me so organized that I don't wait until April 14th to do my taxes!
My office area needs a makeover, I think I will need at least 4, two for in and out, one for important to do's and one for general organization.
I'm seeing some succulents growing from it on my porch.
I just love these. They caught my eye in the catalog. I would place them in my mud room and use one for incoming mail and school papers, and the other for papers that need to go back to school and any other papers that need to go when you leave. Kind of like an in and out box hung on the wall rather than on my kitchen counter.
These baskets are soo great! And can be used in almost every room!! Where they are needed the most, would be my office. I would store my sewing suppiles in one of them (adds some pop), maybe my thread in another, and then some flowers in another. And I could use a couple by the front door to store my mail and keys!!!
I would hang it in my son's bedroom for his small stuff animals.
I'd definitely use this to keep my pets' treats, leashes, and toys in by the back door!
I would use it to hold my note cards and mailing labels....I'm always having to dig in a drawer to find them.
Love these baskets!! Would be perfect in my kitchen to hold untensils that won't fit in my drawers!
I love this....I would use them on my pantry door. I have a pantry that is so small. It is aweful tring to find room to store anything. When you are looking for one thing something seems to always fall.
January means it's time to organize! I wiould use this in my home office to store file folders within easy reach of my desk! Organized AND attractive!! And while we're at it - add 1 to each of my kids rooms to corral clutter!
I think these baskets are way to cool, one will be just perfect hanging beside my husbands recliner chair to hold his, remote, reading glasses, pens and current magazine... I also like the thougth keeping mail orginized.
I would put a clear glass vase with fresh flowers on one side and use the other side for a mail caddy by my back door.
I would love to use this for root veggies in my kitchen (live artwork). Or, in my daughter's playroom for all of her "little" books....I can hang them up at her level and she can put them all away....yay!!
I was doing laundry today and realized that I need this basket hanging on a wall in my laundry room to hold all of my "lost socks" until I find the mate!!!
This basket is so much bigger than I thought! I would hang it in my bathroom and use it for my hair dryer, brushes, and a glass of water setting in there filled with beautiful flowers to make me happy and add color to my bathroom!
In the entry to organize all that crazy incoming mail!
Wow- love this! I need at least a dozen!!! I could use one in every room of my house. I'd start first with using it for paperwork. As a homeschoolin' mamma, paperwork is always needing to be sorted & filed!
So many ideas, but I'll focus on houseguests: Place in guest room, filled with magazines, maps and brochures on things to do in the Orlando area, tuck in some snacks and candy bars and a disposable camera, perhaps a small travel journal, and of course a Welcome Note. Don't forget a cute "Do Not Disturb" sign for the door. Also, place in guest bath..using the divider... fill one side for men and the other for women with soaps, sample lotions, shampoo, extra toothbrushes, tums, asprins and personalize each side with a nameflag made specially for the guest. I would also weave a decorative ribbon through the lattice work. This should bring "a lot of Happy" to my guests.
I would use it as an IN/OUT basket for paperwork coming in the house, outgoing mail, etc.
There are so many great ideas here! I'd love seeing these on my potting table to corral gloves and tools.
I would use them to hold my magazines in the kitchen or bathroom!
So many ways to use these baskets. But I think I would use mine in my pantry to hold my foil,ziplock bags and my press and seal.Or bathrooms with soaps and shampoo for guest.
We home school and our arts & crafts supplies are always everywhere. So I would use these to help organize those items. Plus I would get one to use with the dog toys, treats, and leashes to keep all of that together and handy (looking good won't hurt either-heehee).
I LOVE these would use these all over the house for magazines, mail, remotes , etc.. but definitely in my 7 yr. old daughter's room for her doll clothes and accessories AND for her hair bows. In my 5 yr. old son's room it could hold video games and books.
I would use mine to go with an art organization area i am making for my kids (well I would want to get a few more also) :) I plan to line up a few organizers on the wall for paper, color bookings, etc... so that they are easy to get and off the art table!
So many ideas, but the first ones that come to mind are a mail sorter or dish towel organizer. What a great product!
I plan to use my basket in my kids bathroom to hold their washclothes and hairdryer. Sometimes the drawers are just not big enough!
I would put it in my Bathroom to organize the washcloths, soaps, lotions, etc. Love it!
This is perfect for a mail caddy! I have been nagging my husband about needing something to keep and sort the mail that is not the kitchen table. I would love to win this!
Oh how I love this basket! I will be the envy of the office when I hang it outside my office door for my mail.....one for incoming and one for outgoing!
I would use it as a fruit basket or vegetables or I would love it to organize paperwork and bills. Super cute for alot of things.
I thought about having this by my kitchen desk and put the New Mini Markers in them with "TO DO" and "MAIL" and be able to change it up with whatever you need them to say!
I have a small workspace kithchen so always looking for unique and beautiful pieces that can serve a pirpose as well. This would be wonderful for me to store some decorative dish towels.as well as veggies.Also may consider using int as a holder for my gorgeous nely purchased Colorful Splat guards,funnel and measuring cups and spoons.!! the more you look you know there is endless possibilities for the gorgeous wracks!! Would be thrilled to have them perk up my Small Kitchen Nook!! Blessings tp All
Simple elegant multi purpose basket which is convertible. Whoa. There are many things which needs. To thought through before purchasing. This one is an instant pick. Nice work.
I would use these in the mudroom for my kids hats and gloves and in my kitchen for fruits and veggies!
Simple elegant multi purpose basket which is convertible. Whoa! There are many things which needs to be thought through before purchasing. This one is an instant pick. Nice design.
I have been looking for one of the wine barrel cork holders( wire) but this might be a cute way to display wine corks as well
I can not wait to get this! I have an old bathroom with NO storage. I am going hang it by the sink, for my hair dryer,straightner, and all the other necessities
I have so many possible uses: in the laundry room for the single socks waiting for their mate to show up! In the office as "in" and "out" boxes. As a mail caddy, a card holder at the holidays....so many ideas
With the divider, this basket would be perfect for holding goggles and sunscreen in a covered area by the pool.
Oh since we just moved into a new rental I am trying every way possible to get and stay organized. So right now would be to keep my counters clean. Think I would divide and one side be grocery list/coupons and other would have to be for onions or bananas that don't go in fridge! Thanks!! Rachel
I would like to use this in my kitchen to gather the mail and paper that gathers all over the counter top!
I love these! I would do just as shown in the picture-I would put my onions and potatoes in it!
I love these!!! I would use them just as they are shown-I'd put my onions and potatoes in them!
Would so hang these in my little girls room for her construction paper in one and paint/glitter bottles in the split...LOVE them!
I would put it on the kitchen counter by the laptop and fill it will the book with the passwords (sshh)a tablet, some pens, etc. and place a clip or clothespin or two along the top to hang the famous "to do" list.
I would love to put them in the basement to hold all the wireless controlers from the boys video games- organized and pretty!
Use it for bills and other papers you need to keep track of. Incoming/Need to be paid in one and Outgoing/file in the other. Use small clothespins to clip notes on the front.
I would use it for a variety of things! Towels in the bathroom for a while, magazines by my bed for a while, lotions and perfumes, mail organizer, etc, etc., etc.!!
so many uses.by the phone to hold mail & a million loose papers: bathroom to hold rolled hand towels; books by my bed but my favorite is in my office,hanging on the wall to hold (2 or 3 of them) to hold files.
Our French Wire Baskets would be simply stunning either on your desk or hanging near your desk with some decorative file folders (and you can find some very pretty ones) holding all your important daily paperwork... such a great way to keep an organized office space. Another great use for our basket would be to have one for each of your children to hold their school paperwork, in of course a cool or pretty file folder. You could also tie ribbon, raffia, or attach their name to the basket to personalize it (See our Must-Have Markers for personalizing your basket). It would also be a great bread basket, by simply laying a cloth down and piling in the breadsticks, rolls, and croissants for your Sunday Brunch Buffet. Love our new French Wire Basket... so many uses!
Just ordered one! Going to put potatoes and apples and another would be for onions--oh, but then I might have to cook!
I just love these! I can think of so many uses! My kitchen, my sewing room, our bedside, the kids bedside, the bath room. I might need a few dozen! :)
I could use these for any room in my house. Great for organizing and displaying pretty things like colorful towels in the bath, fruits in the kitchen, magazines, mail, endless uses. I just love them!
I love collecting hand towels for each season or holiday. I would place one of these in my bathroom to hold the pretty pink and red Valentine towels I just purchased. The second one would also find a home in the bathroom with a colorful bottle of bath gel, a body sponge and a yummy smelling lotion.
I've been looking at these baskets for a while, and they would be perfect on the wall of my office. I own my own business and work from home and have been trying to "pretty up" my office space. These baskets would be wonderful for papers, small books, magazines, etc. Love your website and Willow House!
Love those French wire baskets. Need to put them in the kids bathroom to hold all the clutter that teens have on the counter, such as the hair dryer & flat iron & bottles of hair products. Of course- need a second to put in towels and toiletries for the guests!
So many possibilities... -Magazine racks in my bathrooms. - A catch all in my kitchen for mail , etc. - My daughters room for organization. -Inside my pantry for potatoes and onions. -I have two girls and I can personalize them and make them chore baskets =) I just love them and can use about ten of them =)

On the side I rent a small space in an antique shop. I am going to display my vintage magazines in these on the wall. Love, love these! Organizers are great!
Oh, I love this basket. Our mail always gets lost in the shuffle. I would use one side for mail and the other for children's homework that has to be completed and turned in at the end of the week.
These baskets are fabulous! They would be a beautiful additon to any room in the house. I believe I would use it in my office to hold all those miscellaneous notes and supplies that end up in all the wrong spots. This would keep it neat and organized!
Love it with fruit and veggies! Perfect for my kitchen goods.
just the way you have it. Nice way to store fruit/onions/potatoes/garlic. Right on hand, but not on a table. counter to gobble up precious space!
These have soooo many uses. They can go in the pantry, in a study or on my office wall. You know, if you have a pool, they could go on the fence to hold toys, sun screen or maybe even towels.
Love this basket! I plan on getting several...bathroom, kitchen, office! So many ways to use it!!
Love this basket! I plan on getting several...bathroom, kitchen, office! So many ways to use it!!
I would fill with kitchen gadgets & give as a most wonderful bridal shower gift.
tidy place for the mail...it always looks so junky on the counter OR all those take out menus by the phone
I want a dozen of them!! I want one by my tub for the bubble bath clutter, one in the laundry room as a drop spot for mail, 2 in the kitchen for apples and oranges, 2 on the wall by my son's bed - one for stuffed animals and one for books at bedtime, one above my nightstand for my nightly reading. I could use them in so many more places!! As a pretty planter at the the front door or on the walls in my living room for faux flowers.
So many ways touse this...I could use it in my home office as a place to collect ingoing and outgoing mail. Or, at the back door as a place for my daughter to put all her schoolwork that I need to read and sign. I think it would be really cute with a "Must Have Mini Marker" attached to it.
I have the PERFECT place for 2 of these beauties! My kitchen has needed a basket for some time and these will be perfect! When they arent holding my fruit and vegetables they will be able to show off a wide array of other items! I may even want 2 more to go in my office once the remodel is done!!
How darling! I would use it for fruit--as in the picture. We are all more likely to choose a healthy snack if it's right in front of us!
I LOVE this piece! I'm thinking...what a great way to organize your mail/bills incoming and paid/outgoing!
There are so many great uses. I would fill it with baby goodies & give it as a baby shower gift. Put in the office for organizing folders/catalogs/WH items. In the kitchen I would store cookbooks. This basket is awesome!
We're due in May with a new baby boy and I need all the extra organizational tools I can use. This would make a cute diaper/wipe caddy for the nursery!
I would use it to sort out bills from coupons... Got plenty of the first!
I would hang these on the back of my pantry door and use it to store healthy snacks that my kids could chose from!
I can't wait to get these! One of my favorites. I plan on using them in my office to hold files, and outgoing mail.
We have a small bathroom that is utilized by our children alot without any storage for towels, I would hang them on the wall and roll towels for storage until they are needed.
I LOVE THESE! I would use them for onions and potatoes, lemons and limes, or papers/magazines/reading materials in the office.
how about in a kids room to put stuffed animals or even diapers!
I'm organizing my scrapbooking space and would love to hang this basket on the wall to hold my craft magazines!
We finally have a finished basement for the family to hang out. My biggest pet-peeve is finding Wii remotes laying everywhere! What a lovely way to organize our FUN!!
I just LOVE this basket! I have suggested this at my parties for those that have little ones. Hang these at toddler level so that they can learn from the beginning where their toys go. I think this is a fun way to play CLEAN UP!! I also think this is a great basket for your pet toys. So many uses!! From the bath room with rolled up towels to the office for Organization to the Kitchen for your plastic bags. I love the idea of placing your rolled ribbons and pulling it through the holes. So many creative ways to use this!! LOVE IT!!
Next to my stove with olive oil and onions, easy access as it seems I'm always using the both every time I cook.
I love to incorporate the French-look in my home and this basket is a perfect addition. I would use them in the laundry room holding soaps, stain sticks, hosiery bags, etc.
This basket would be cute to use in a bathroom. Roll up some washcloths on one side and bath soaps/lotions on the other side. Great to use when you have overnight guests. Or I could use it at school to hold papers that need to be graded.
Gorgeous basket! I'd put it by my backdoor to collect hats, mittens and scarves.
I plan to use it to hold our cellphones by the pool. I plan to line it with cloth or a towel so people can put their phones in it so they don't get wet!
Since we just moved into smaller space....definitely in the kitchen to hold incoming mail, Willow House mags I keep handy for visitors, dishtowels and potholders.
I would like to add moss and flowers for my front porch wall!
I think the French Wire Convertible Basket is going to be our best selling product in the spring catalog! I have a set in my pantry for potatoes & onions - another set in my office for outgoing mail and important papers and if I am lucky enough to win a 3rd set they will go in my Tack Room and hold brushes and combs for my horses!!
I am planning on hanging it near my front door where I am going to place my current WH catalogs! That way my friends who stop by when I am not home, can pick up their own copy without waiting on me!
I am planning on using as an organizer for my kid's things to transport from downstairs to upstairs where their "things" belong! Helps them and me!
I think I would use this for books/magazines in the bathrooms
this is so cute! i would use it with the divider for in-coming mail and out-going mail! nelly dot barney at yahoo dot com
I love these baskets! I would use it next to the front door as a mail bin.
I need a dozen of these! So many ideas. I'm using them in my mudroom for hats gloves, and mittens. Each person has their own basket - complete with their name written on the new "must have mini markers".
This would certainly add some elegance to my home office. I would use this to organize my thank you notes, inspiration guides, catalogs, envelopes and brightly colored file folders.
I would use it for mail, magazines, etc.
ONE way I want to use it is rolling hand towels & wash cloths, setting it in guest bathroom with a welcome card and some pretty bath soaps!
I'm thinking they would be perfect in the kids play room to organize their action figures, balls, stuffed animals, barbies, game paddles, etc. (although I may need 20 baskets to accomplish this feat!!)
I would hang this on the wall in my pantry!
I like it for mail- or beside the desk for "pending" business.
this is one of my favorite items in the spring catalog :-) I would use one of them to store potatoes and/or onions. The other one, I would use the divider to separate a note/shopping pad with pen/pencils and limes/lemons on the other compartment.
I'd use this beside my chalkboard in the kitchen for the chalk and eraser! One side would hold the chalk and the other would hold the eraser.
I think I would put all those little things you want handy/accessible but aren't neccessarily attractive in it... like washcloths/hand towels by the sink.... they never stay neatly on the counter. Magazines, my daughters little books, art supplies... the possiblities are endless!
I could use these in my office. I can put forms, folders etc.
In the play room - I need 4 or 5 to corrall and keep organized all the kids toys! And this would make them look so cute!
Those are so cute and functional! These could be used above my kids' art table to hold their art supplies. For me, I would see if I could attach a suction cup and hang it in my shower so it could hold my shampoo/conditioner bottles. I have them on the floor now so this would be heavensent!
I love all the suggestions I read in the blog! I can actually see using it in several rooms, for incoming mail, outgoing papers, fruit and vegetables in the kitchen, toiletries in the bath, travel sizes in the guest bath, and small office supplies in my assistant's office at work! They're really such multi-taskers, I'd love to have a basket of THEM.
I really like their use as a produce holder and would get several to place on either side of my hutch rather than pictures. my one year old would probably like one next to his kitchen, too, to help in sorting his wooden fruits and veggies. it may help keep all the "kitchens" more organized in our house. Also, visually seeing fruits and veggies vs. sweets usually leads you to reach for them first. what a great habit to get into and teach our little man! p.s. one in the bathroom for magazines/toilet paper sure would be cute, too!
I would have one in almost every room. In the bathroom tohold my hairdryer, curling iron, straightening iron, and brushes. In the play room for my daughters American Girl doll clothes and shoes. In the craft room to hold various craft items. In the kitchen to hold my K-Cups for my Keurig and another for seasonal fruit. In the mud room to hold mittens, scarves, and hats. Another as a magazine holder, and another to hold cookbooks!
I so need that to get a great start on organizing my office. The french wire look is fab!
These could be used for so much I would use it by the door for mail and keys, also in the washroom for storing cleaning supplies and towels, in the bathroom for towels, washclothes,and magazines. I could also use it in the kitchen for fruits or as kitchen towel holders, in the bedroom to put books in, line these in a awesome fabric and then store stuff in them that would really dress up a room.
I'd love one for every room in the house. It would be great by the door for keys, outgoing mail, anything you don't want to forget to grab on your way out the door!
I always have lots fruit. So, I'd use this in my kitchen to hold some of the fruit.
I plan on taking them, spray painting them with crackle white paint and hanging them as Willow House catalog holders in my rustic white office!
Perfect to add to a baby shower gift basket, all filled up w/useful baby goodies! They are also perfect for keeping all my teen daughter's hair products and make-up.
These are so useful! I would sit one of these on my desk at home to put all my home decor ideas in. Fabric samples, magazine pages, paint chips, etc... Even recipes torn out to try.
These would match my entryway/mudroom area and work great for collecting mittens and hats from ALL the kids that go in and out my back door.
I love the divider, it means multiple uses for one container! #1 One can hold art pencils, markers and paints while the other can hold the paper we use! #2Second idea, put florists foam at the bottom and cover all around with moss, then place tulips in it and they over flow as a beautiful reminder of Spring in the house!
The Royal Street Urn fits perfectly on one side of the basket, holding fresh flowers. The other side will hold all your place mats, napkins and such. This way it can be a fun centerpiece for your table and help organize at the same time.
I would use it as a nicer way to store my dog's leashes and collars that currently stay stacked on the bottom step! It would also fit nicely in my small bathroom to store magazines.
I have had this basket on my wishlist since I saw it in the new catalog! Because I love the bookstand so much, I would love to use wire basket nearby to put cookbooks in :) I haven't decided if it would hang on the wall or sit on the counter but I lOVE it! Thanks for a chance to win! Beth myserendipity.beth@yahoo.com
I would use it for my mail & bills! Great way to keep them sorted and organized!! OR use them in my craft room to hold ribbons, stamps, glue sticks, and other odds and ends!
Would use them in the mud room for mittens/gloves, rolled up scarves.
Oooh! I could fill it up with all those balls of knitting yarn that seem to be everywhere.
Scrapbook paper! I can just see it!
I would have French Wire Baskets hanging right outside of my backdoor filled with flowers. Line with moss, fill with potting mix, plant beautiful blue lobelias and yellow pansies peeking through the moss and spilling over top.
I'd so love these in my office, attached to the side of a big bookcase, for appointments cards, calendars and other things that need to be visible!
I love these baskets! There are so many fun things you could use it for. Some of the things I might use it for are: -to hold personalized stationery, thank you notes and stamps -to hold a pretty stash of fabric waiting in the queue of sewing projects to be completed -to hold spices -to hold books, mail, magazines or fun catalogs, including Willow House! -to hold pretty ribbons and tape for wrapping pretty packages.
This would be hung in my scrapbooking "closet" to hold ribbons and jars of flowers and other trinkets - easily viewed while I work on projects!
I would line it with coconut fiber matting, fill with potting soil and plant bulbs in it for spring. (Of course the bulbs would be marked with the mini markers!) It would look perfect on our garden gate entrance.
If I had a mud room, I would want one for every member of the family, with different color ribbons threaded thru to designate us all, that way we would have a place to drop our gloves, scarfs, hats, lunch pails, or what ever we bring in the house to help keep us organized. (Now all I need to do is make a make-shift mud room)
I would use it to keep my new puppy's toys, sweater, harness and leash all together. That way when I come in from work, I have all I need for her daily walk in one place instead of scattered around.
I would put it in my kitchen--for utensils, or just miscellaneous stuff. Too cute and it would go perfectly! Or maybe in my scrapbook room...oh man!
I got one for gloves, it will go on the wall by the back door.
I would use the basket in my bathroom. On one side I would put pretty washcloths rolled and on the other side I would put bath soaps,gels & lotions for my guests to use.
This would be perfect in my office to hold incoming papers/mail not yet sorted.
I would love to use it in the kitchen to put lemons and limes in. Sooo cute!
I would love to use these to hold magazines or paper for crafts! They are so versatile goodness me!
I would use the basket for magazines or catalogs. I would have one in the sewing room for patterns or templets for the quilt I'm working on.
not only will it match my 3-tiered stand, but PERFECT for setting on the large speakers in my kitchen to hold my kids' homework and supplies!
It needs to go in my closet, but it is so pretty, it probably would be in my kitchen/dining room area to hold decorative things.
My first thought was to hang multiples in the mudroom for hats/mittens, dog leashes and such. Then I realized file folders fit perfectly without the divider-perfect for all those school/office papers! Leave the divider in and use it for incoming and outgoing mail. Or in the bathroom, it hold several rolls of toilet paper very attractively :o)
OMG! This is my favorite new piece. I was inspired by the flowers, burlap and sticks Melanie showed it with at the Leadership Conference and did my own version with all greens and hung it on my door w/ a pretty ribbon. My marker says Be Green! Wish I could post the pic here. I'll put it up on FB if anyone wants to see it. (www.facebook.com/ployde.willowhouse) I want about 90 more of these because their uses are endless. I'd like to spray paint one cream and use it to hold toilet tissue in my bathroom. I need another one for onion storage, two for file folders and bills in my office, one by the back door for lotions and bug spray or hats and gloves, etc, etc, etc!!!
This is such a great basket I would have a hard time deciding how to use it best. I know I would use it to store something in a beautiful way.
Well it may be January, but in my mind Spring is around the corner :) I would hang these outside my windows, on the side of my house, or on my deck. I would put potting soil in it and grow some beautiful flowers
These baskets are fantastic for many uses! My initial idea is to use them to sort our mail or to store fresh onions and potatoes. Several baskets would help simplify my life.
I can see this in the bathroom with rolled hand towels on one side and pretty soaps on the other.Perhaps an artificial daisy attached in top center.
Those holes look rather large. My favorite thing to put in baskets is macaroni wich I don't think that basket will hold very well. Is there a solution for me, a man who wants to decorate his house with baskets of pasta?
This basket would be great for all my kids art supplies!
I would use it in our homeschool classroom to store supplies!
I'd use these hanging like this and use one for incoming mail and one for outgoing mail. They would help keep me organized!
In my basement/ playroom to hold all the bouncy balls, ping pong balls that are always all over the place with two boys!
I would use it in my craft room for storing yarn and knitting supplies! It would be so eye catching to see all the beautiful yarn balls colors through the wire. Love it!!
I would use it in my bathroom for my hairbrushes, curling iron, flat iron, etc. I would also use it for my office to sort files, paperwork, etc. Love the basket!
I would use it in my bathroom for my hairbrushes, curling iron, flat iron, etc. Or in my office for files, notepads, etc. Love the basket--could have so many uses!!!! :)
I would use it at work. My office needs some spice! Looks like a great In Box to me!!!!
I would use them in the Kitchen so my kiddos can put their homework that needs to be reviewed or signed in the basket.... of course I will nee three since I have three kids!!!
I would use one of these in my bathroom to put things in like magazines or it would be great to put right outside the tub for my little boy's tub toys.
I would use to hold all those important school papers that sways have to be turned in. But always get misplaced. I would hang it right above where we hang the car keys so I will not forget them.
Love this basket. There are just so many wonderful ways to use this piece. I would mostly use it in my kitchen- for fruits and veggies. It would also be great fro organizing our home office!
This would look so lovely in my kitchen....
Love it, beautiful in my kitchen!
I will use this in the kitchen as a utensil caddy! I have WAY too many for normal-sized caddys, and it is a hasssle to shuffle through a drawer full of utensils- and dangerous even because lots of them are sharp! The divider in this basket will be great to help keep them comartmentalized! And I can hang the basket on the wall, freeing up more counter space!
This looks really neat. I think I would hang it on my kitchen wall for fresh fruits.
I would use one for each child to put important info I need to read from school and or anything they want to share with me.
It can be used to hang near your stove and hold cooking utensils. It keeps them all very handy. You can also hang a second one to hold your salt, pepper and most used spices.
I can think of a million ways to use it, and could go on and on. But, the first thing I'd do is clean out my really scary top drawer in my bathroom vanity. Those darn cords try to tie me up every time I reach in for my hair dryer or curling iron! I'd organize by hanging it by my bathroom sink and corral those little dickens! Now that's organization!
I would definitely use it to organize my Willow House catalogs at home and at my parties!
Definitely would use it to organize my vanity in the bathroom as it is always cluttered & needs help!
Heavily into spring organizing here...I would use one for each kid at the door, so they have a place to look for their mail, college catalogs, etc.
I would use a couple in my home office with one labeled "to do" and one labeled "file". Labels on baskets would be made with a piece of burlap and hand stitched casual font wording. This would help me to keep the pile off my desk and keep me more organized!
I LOVE these baskets!! I have two in my sewing room! I use one to hold my patterns and the other one I use for my "extras" like bibs, onsies, etc. that I use for gift giving!!
