Hand-woven baskets unlock new possibilities for home aesthetics

Different weaving materials also have different characteristics. Rattan is flexible and the baskets made of it are light and durable, suitable for storing lightweight items such as clothes and toys. High-quality rattan baskets have a smooth surface without burrs and are tightly and evenly woven. Bamboo is hard and suitable for making storage containers that require a certain amount of support. The sophisticated bamboo weaving process can make the basket both strong and light, and it is often used for kitchen storage or laundry baskets. This type of natural material gives the basket a unique texture and natural color, which is suitable for home environments that pursue an ecological style. The traditional European-style wicker basket has a strong pastoral atmosphere and is often used for picnic baskets or decorative storage.

Breaking through traditional thinking, hand-woven baskets can be the finishing touch of your home aesthetics.

Choose a round or oval basket with a larger opening in the living room, place it diagonally next to the sofa or coffee table, and place some books, which is convenient for reading and adds a literary atmosphere. Small woven baskets can centrally store small items such as remote controls and charging cables in the living room. Putting potted plants in a woven basket of appropriate size can immediately enhance the decorative effect of the plants.

Large woven baskets are very suitable for storing sweaters and scarves that are not worn temporarily in the bedroom, which keeps the bedroom tidy and is easy to use. Choose woven baskets with lining cloth as dirty clothes storage, which is both beautiful and practical. Small and exquisite woven baskets with flannel lining are the perfect home for jewelry.

Medium-sized woven baskets are used in the kitchen and dining room to hold root vegetables such as onions, garlic, and potatoes, which are both breathable and beautiful. Rattan bread baskets can keep bread ventilated and prevent mold. In the restaurant, woven baskets are used to store napkins and tableware to add a sense of dining ritual.

For the bathroom space, moisture-proof woven baskets are selected to store spare towels to create a hot spring vacation feeling. Multi-layer woven baskets can be classified to store various bathing supplies.

Different sizes of woven baskets can be used in the children's room to help children classify and store toys and cultivate the habit of tidying up. Tilt-placed woven baskets are the best display racks for children's picture books.

If you have chosen a hand-woven basket, then to keep your hand-woven basket beautiful for a long time, you need to pay attention to the following maintenance points: daily cleaning, regular use of soft brushes or vacuum cleaner accessories to remove dust. Stubborn stains can be wiped with a slightly damp soft cloth and then wiped dry immediately. Moisture-proof treatment should avoid long-term exposure to moisture. If accidentally stained with water, it should be immediately dried with a dry cloth and placed in a ventilated place to dry in the shade. Avoid exposure to the sun or drying. Avoid heavy pressure during storage to cause deformation. When not in use, the interior can be filled with bubble paper or non-woven fabric to maintain the shape. Natural materials may attract insects, and the surface can be regularly wiped with diluted lavender essential oil to prevent insects. In the dry season, special care oil can be lightly applied to the surface to prevent the material from drying and cracking.

They remind us in the most simple way: beauty can exist in every detail of daily life.
