Panama Woven Washable Baskets |
This is the first time I have ever published a Tuesday Tip that was on the pricey side. But when I discovered these baskets from Williams-Sonoma Home, I thought it was worth passing along. The baskets look just like wicker, but are made from polypropylene.The retail price is $69.99 (I bought my for $59.95 at the WSH outlet in Leesburg, Virginia) which seems a bit much for just 2 baskets until you consider they can be used over and over and even left outdoors!
If you don't want to wash them by hand, you can put them in the dishwasher!!!
I love real wicker and have 2 pull out baskets for fruit/vegetable storage (with liners) in my kitchen, but the germaphobe in me loves this more!!! |
I can think of dozens of ways to use them, but here's what I did with my pair:
I've told my daughter to put whatever she needs for the pool here. My other daughter has one for all her summer items too. Now if she would just put her things away...teenagers! |
Thank you so much for sharing! I am getting these for sure! I love that you can easy them. I am so afraid of putting produce in a basket, and have ruined many washing them. Made my day. Now if I can order these and not shop WS, lol.

I could think of a dozen ways I could use these..great for shoes/flip flops/ for summer and food storage in the pantry. I have to find these....btw your comment today cracked me up:) Sure come lay on the rug and spectate.....why not? :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great find! It works perfect in the summer...and the kitchen. I would have never guessed to use it for culinary needs! I hope you can stop by my blog and enter my giveaway for a pair of pearl earrings, Wednesday is the final entry day. Enjoy your week!

ReplyDeleteknow they aren't the real McCoy!
Thanks for the Tuesday Tip : )
Your "dog-ter's" basket is cute,
too! My dog-ter has a wire
basket for her stuff, and like
yours, never picks up ~ ha!
Reminds me of the toddler years
when you have to go around
and pick up at the end of the day!
