The Best Woven Baskets from Amazon
These past few weeks, I’ve been cleaning up and adding to my Amazon finds. Recently, I’ve been on the hunt for baskets… after finishing my closet, I’ve been in organization mode over here. Baskets are great for storage in so many spaces throughout your house… under a bathroom vanity, console table, positioned in an entryway, used as a laundry hamper, tucked in the corner as a waste basket, used alongside a fireplace for firewood, or most commonly used as a catch all in the main living space for all the blankets and throws that accompany fall and cold weather. Today, I’m sharing 15 of the best woven baskets from Amazon. Click through to shop my favorites!
If you’re looking for more of my Amazon Finds, you can find them in My Amazon Storefront. I’m always sharing my top picks in furniture, window treatments, lighting, hardware, and more. Otherwise, here are some of my top basket picks…
What I Look for in a Woven Basket or Tray
When I’m shopping for baskets, I prefer a unique shape, texture, or material. Scale and proportion is also high on my consideration list. Most baskets I found check all of these boxes. For our house, I either want baskets to be functional or sculptural (as decor)… even better when they can be both. There were so many good options, I ended up purchasing a couple for myself.
My Favorite Woven Baskets from Amazon
1. Black Basic Bolga Basket
This modern round basket with a leather handle is made from elephant grass and offers versatile storage. I love the darker color and graphic weave. This one also has a nice organic shape.
2. Round Wicker Laundry Hamper
This one is available in two sizes and includes a removable cotton liner. Use it for laundry or to hide toys or pillows. I like how sturdy it looks and the braided lid is nice.
3. Pack of Four Wicker Baskets
These handwoven baskets can be used for laundry or storage bins. They can be stacked and regain their shape after being compressed. I especially like the vegan leather handles, which make them feel a little more polished than your basic storage bin. I have a set of these for one of our closets.
4. Seagrass Basket with Handles
This is a large handwoven basket with sturdy handles and a braided design. It can be used for storage of up to 50 lbs making it a versatile option. I’d style this beneath an open storage bathroom vanity!
5. Rattan Nesting Baskets
Nesting baskets are great when you want coordinated storage in multiple sizes. The handwoven rattan gives these plenty of texture, while the simple shape makes them easy to use on shelves, under a console, or in a living room for blankets and throws.
6. Water Hyacinth Lidded Basket
Made of handwoven water hyacinth, this basket has a lid that can also be used as a tray. It offers versatile storage or use it as a planter to display your favorite potted tree.
7. Oversized Shallow Basket
This rattan basket is perfect for folded towels or toiletry storage beneath a bathroom vanity… that’s how I use it! I have this option in our basement bathroom and it’s heavy duty. The handles are really functional!
8. Serving Basket Bowl Set
These wicker serving bowls come in a set of three. They’re a classic find that would be easy to style in the kitchen, on a shelf, or on the coffee table as a catch all.
9. Lidded Laundry Hamper
If your laundry hamper is going to live somewhere visible, I’m a believer it needs to be attractive. This woven option has a lid to keep laundry hidden and includes two washable liners, which makes it both pretty and practical.
10. Rattan Wall Storage
This handwoven rattan hanging organizer mounts to the wall, making it a fun decorative option when you’re short on floor or counter space. I can see it holding fruit, a plant, or laundry room supplies. I actually bought one of these for the cabin mudroom.
11. Rattan Mesh Waste Basket
Proof that even a waste basket can be pretty! This open weave rattan basket is one of my favorites for trash or paper. I keep one of these under my desk in my home office. It’s also available in a white wash color finish.
12. Handwoven Paper Rope Bins
These three nesting bins are woven from twisted paper rope, which gives each one a slightly unique finish. The removable linen liner makes them easy to keep clean. I’d use these on open shelving, in a bathroom, or for smaller closet storage.
13. Woven Storage Trunk
This trunk features a lift-off lid made of wicker and rattan giving it so much more character than a basic basket. It’s also available in two sizes and three color options. This would be ideal for extra bedding in a bedroom, or styled in a living room.
14. Wicker Storage Baskets
I love these lightweight yet durable handwoven wicker baskets. Use them in your bathroom, closet, or pantry to contain smaller items while keeping everything looking pulled together. I have multiple sets of these in our kitchen.
15. Hinged Lid Corner Hamper
The handwoven rattan corner hamper fits into the smallest of spaces. It has a hinged lid and cotton liner. The shape makes it perfect for tight spaces.
How I Use Woven Baskets at Home
One of the reasons I love woven baskets is that they’re useful in every room. I tend to choose them based on what needs to be stored and where the basket will live. A few of my favorite uses include…
- Large floor baskets for blankets, pillows, toys, or firewood
- Lidded baskets for anything I’d rather not see
- Smaller structured baskets under vanities, consoles, and open shelving
- Tall woven hampers for laundry or concealed trash
- Decorative baskets and bowls for countertops and tabletop storage
- Pantry or closet organization
Liners are always a plus for me, because they make it easier to keep your baskets clean… just toss them in the wash. I also appreciate baskets with dividers, like my tea basket below. It has slots for tea sachets and better organization.
Woven Basket Questions?
Consider them part of the room rather than an afterthought. Repeat natural texture elsewhere, choose a basket that’s properly scaled to the furniture around it, and don’t feel obligated to match every basket in the house. I actually prefer a collected mix of shapes and weaves.
We have this one in our laundry room next to the dog supplies. It fits all of Cash & Crosby’s toys and looks at home in our dog station vignette.
I love styling woven trays on a countertop, the bathroom vanity, a bedside table, etc. Any area you’re trying to corral smaller items, trays are your best bet. See the one styled in our guest bath below…

Are you a basket person? I definitely am…. especially as the weather starts to cool and I go into organizing mode. They definitely have a cozy factor to them, as well. I hope you all have an amazing week filled with fun fall things!
What a selection! I’m really drawn to the smell and sounds of baskets. (Weird.) Have you ever made them? I took a couple of the coolest basket weaving classes at the Phoenix Botanical Gardens. Let me tell you, they were tough! Every time I see a kind of pricey basket, I think of the focus and dexterity that it takes. Happy fall Friday! (sending you positive house-finding vibes!)
I am too!! I don’t think it’s weird… it’s cozy and nostalgic. Ha! At least that’s what I tell myself. I’ve never taken a basket making class, but it sounds super fun (and challenging). Hope you have a great weekend Peggi! xo
I love baskets! Especially big, chunky ones. When we planned our kitchen reno, I had designed an open cubby (it ended up being very large, like 60″, due to how far the cabinets had to continue down) for a desk area. Well, two months post-reno I NEVER used it. So our contractor built-in some simple shelves for storage. I am using these Smith & Hawken from Target, two tall ones and two short ones:

They look so good, and I’m so glad the design ended up this way with the shelf instead of more cabinets, b/c more cabinets would have been just too much (the wall is really long, about 210″, all kitchen).
That sounds dreamy!! I love the warmth and texture they add to a space. I bet it’s a nice break in a sea full of cabinetry. Happy Friday, Karen! xo
Do you have a link to the basket you’re holding in this picture?
Sorry Katie! It was from Article, but has since been discontinued. xo
Baskets are a must for me! I have several of various sizes throughout the house, and have been on the hunt for a few more. Do you mind sharing where you found the large rectangular basket for your closet? I need 2 of that size and scale and can only seem to find large round ones. Favorites of this roundup are 2, 4, 6, 7, and 8 (that shape!🤤). We had a birthday celebration over the weekend for AJ, and I now have an official teen in the house (howwww??). I hope you had an amazing fall weekend enjoying views from the cabin. Cheers to a fantastic last week of September!
