While working on little Teddy’s nursery, I decided that standard-issue hampers and toy bins were just not going to work for me. In a frenzy to find stylish storage, i came across these gorgeous Serena and Lily Senegalese Storage Baskets.

They’re big, bold, and exotic without taking over the room, and the handles are helpful for carrying huge loads of baby laundry over to the washing machine.

My basket success (and ensuing infatuation) got me thinking… what else is out there? Here are a few of my favorite woven wonders:

O.co, formerly Overstock.com (why did they do that?) actually has an incredible selection. I LOVE the idea of a grouping of inexpensive Rwandan beauties arranged like artwork on the wall.

If i hadn’t already purchased the Serena and Lily baskets, I’d be all over this bargain by Home Decorators Collection.

And “1”more with a different feel, Restoration Hardware’s handy set of three baskets to stash odds and ends.
