The Pastel Storage Baskets That Will Become Your Future Heirlooms

What if the storage baskets in your home could do more than hold blankets and toys? What if these artisanal baskets were handwoven from sustainably-sourced sisal in the prettiest pastel shades? And what if these pastel storage baskets could also hold stories? 

A handcrafted basket from The Basket Room also holds the story of the skilled Kenyan women who wove it. It holds the story of the life she’s been empowered to build with the fair wages she’s earned, and the way it’s designed to last a lifetime.

That combination means your new pastel basket will become a future heirloom that transcends trends. 

Read on to discover our new Spring/Summer pastel basket and tableware collection, which is ready to elevate your everyday. 

Pastel Storage Baskets Handcrafted in Kenya

Our handwoven baskets offer timeless colour, durability, and the peace of mind that comes from ethical production. And they also look oh. so. pretty. 

We’ve never met a pastel tone we didn’t love, and we’re not alone: pastel tones are a timeless classic that isn’t defined by a single season. Pastel baskets are our bestselling shades, along with neutrals, because they are so versatile. 

The Basket Room’s colour palette for our Spring/Summer collection pairs natural, undyed sisal with perfect pastel tones that will add extra interest to your home.

Our S/S pastel basket storage palette features beautiful combinations of calming powder blue, serene sapling green, pretty dusty pink and cheerful butter yellow, with touches of true blue for contrast. 

How to Use Pastel Storage Baskets Around Your Home

Our handwoven pastel baskets are the effortless way to keep your home tidy and well organised. Because our baskets are hand-woven in a range of sizes, you’ll be able to find one to fit snugly in every nook in your home. That makes them ideal for living rooms, bedrooms or kitchens. 

From storing toys and toilet rolls, to tidying away toiletries and blankets, there’s a basket sized to match, and lining up two or three matching baskets looks so chic.

Durable Pastel Storage Baskets for Children’s Rooms

Our handwoven baskets are not reserved for the grown-ups. Our pastel-toned baskets are the perfect addition to a teenager’s room, a children’s room, or a nursery. 

Teens will love storing their hairdryer and styling products in a pink or yellow storage basket. Woven baskets also make a great place to pop those still-loved but outgrown soft toys. A smaller basket can store game controllers or remote controls – our TIBA true blue and sapling green basket is perfect for this.
