A wicker basket bakes an excellent decorative addition to your home or cottage. Not only for "looks" either, these baskets have some of practical uses as well. No home is complete with no unique blend of practicality and charm that can only be offered by wicker baskets.

Wicker baskets have history! Returning to thousands of years BC, these baskets were woven from pliable and fibrous plant materials including oak, ash, willow, cane and reed. Typically whether solid or reed woven base was laid down first, then, the vertical staves were added like a support frame. The circumference, or sides, with the basket were then woven in an over-under pattern to complete the basket. Different weave placements or materials might be used to create different patterns or finishes. A lid or handle could then be added in if desired.

white wicker baskets - There are lots of uses for a wicker basket; as much uses as there are styles and sizes. They make excellent sheaths for potted plants.

small wicker baskets - Interior ways to use wicker baskets are numerous, and the sky is the limit for which you can come up with.

What about a basket in the corner of the family room holding books and magazines? A fruit basket since the centerpiece for your dining room table... or on the counter, holding spices, condiments or teas.

There's no reason to get fed up with these baskets in order to run out of uses. They are available in all shapes and sizes and can be purchased cheaply at any department or specialty store.
