The $7 T.J. Maxx Storage Basket You'll Use in Every Room (It's So Stylish!)
Finding storage solutions for the home that not only help you declutter but also look good doing it takes some digging. It’s not impossible, though; we’ve managed to find collapsible storage crates that are easy on the eyes, for example, and even magnetic fridge organizers that won’t detract from your interior decor style. As far as bins and baskets go, your best bet for buying something chic is to seek out woven pieces, specifically anything made of cane, rattan, or another natural material. You can find plenty of pieces like this at retailers like Pottery Barn and Serena & Lily, but they’ll cost you a good chunk of change. One store we were delighted to discover has tons of woven baskets — all for $50 or less — is T.J. Maxx.
So many of the available options look way more expensive than they are, and you can use them in pretty much every room of your apartment. Below, you’ll find 10 of our favorites, from small bins for under $10 to four-piece sets that’ll corral clutter in the kids’ room, closet, or home office.
