6 Chic Ways to Incorporate Scalloped Wicker Baskets into Your Home

I’ve always loved finding new ways to decorate my home, and one of my absolute favorite pieces to work with is a scalloped wicker basket. It’s a wonderfully practical, yet versatile and charming, decor element! The natural texture and the delicate scalloped edges make it both timeless and on-trend—perfect for adding a cozy, curated touch to any room.

Not sure how you would use it in your decor? Here are some of my favorite ways to incorporate this stylish basket into different spaces around your home:

1. Ottoman Organization

I’ve found that a scalloped wicker basket is perfect for keeping my living room tidy. I place it on my ottoman to corral things like remote controls, books, and a cozy throw blanket. Not only does it keep everything organized, but it also adds a soft, natural texture to the room.

2. Coffee Table

On my coffee table, a scalloped wicker basket serves as a base for a simple but beautiful vignette. I usually layer it with a candle, a small vase of fresh flowers, and a decorative object or two. The scalloped edges add just the right amount of interest, making even everyday items look intentionally styled. Plus, it’s super practical—if I need more table space, the whole display is self-contained; I can just lift the whole basket and set it aside. I love switching up the display seasonally as well—adding pinecones and greenery in the winter or fresh flowers and light reads in the summer.

3. Entryway Catch-All

Nothing makes a home feel more welcoming than a well-styled entryway. I like to place a scalloped wicker basket on our console table to keep keys, mail, and sunglasses in one easy-to-find spot. It keeps the space from looking cluttered and adds a warm, homey touch as soon as you walk through the door.

4. Bathroom Storage

Who says bathroom storage can’t be beautiful? I use a scalloped wicker basket to hold rolled-up hand towels, bath products, or even extra toilet paper. It’s a simple way to make the bathroom feel like a little retreat, combining function with style. (And with both white and brown color options for my baskets, it's even easier to pick the feel I'm going for!)

5. Bedroom

On my bedroom dresser, a scalloped wicker basket is my go-to for keeping perfume bottles, jewelry, and other small accessories organized. It feels so much more special than a standard tray, and it ties in perfectly with my room’s relaxed, natural feel.

6. Kid’s Room or Nursery

If you have little ones, you know how quickly their toys and treasures can take over. A scalloped wicker basket is the perfect complement for kid’s rooms to store small toys, books, or art supplies. It’s lightweight and easy for kids to use while still blending seamlessly with the rest of our home decor.

No matter where you use it, a scalloped wicker basket brings an effortless, curated look to your home. It’s small details like this that make a big difference in creating spaces that feel welcoming and lived-in.
