Decorating ideas

For a table centrepiece, line the basket with moss or tissue paper, then place taller items near the handle and smaller ones along the flared edges. On a sideboard or console table, it can hold an arrangement of dried flowers, candles in glass holders or vintage finds.

In a shop or at a market, it can display lightweight products such as soaps, sachets and small handmade items. Do not use it to carry heavy objects or hang the basket by its handle.

Care and personalisation

Dust with a dry cloth or soft brush. Avoid using large amounts of water or putting it in the dishwasher, as these can cause the solid wood to swell and crack. Keep the basket away from direct heat sources.

To personalise it, sand lightly with fine-grit sandpaper and remove the dust. Then apply paint, wood stain or varnish suitable for indoor wood. White paint or a distressed finish enhances its country style.

Frequently asked questions

How do you decorate a wooden basket?

Decorate a wooden basket by filling it with dried flowers, pine cones, decorative fruit or candles in glass holders. First line the bottom with moss or tissue paper, then place taller items in the centre and smaller ones at the sides. The wood can also be painted or stained to suit the room.

Where should you place a decorative wooden basket?

A decorative wooden basket looks at home in the centre of a table, on a sideboard, an entryway console table or a shelf. In a shop, it can be used to display items on a stall or in a window. Choose a dry spot away from moisture and direct sunlight.

Can this basket be used to carry items?

No, this basket is a decorative item and is not designed to carry loads. Its handle is part of its silhouette. To carry shopping, bottles or a harvest, choose a carrying basket designed for the purpose.

Can you paint a solid wood basket?

Yes, solid wood can be painted after a light sanding with fine-grit sandpaper and a thorough dusting. Acrylic or chalk paint gives it a country look. Clear varnish preserves the wood’s natural appearance.
