Not only is spring the perfect time to declutter your home, but it’s also a great time of year to look for seasonal decor that doubles as home storage. I’ve found that the best way to not miss out on these doubles is to peruse the decor section during my weekly grocery rounds for affordable finds that can easily be repurposed as extra storage space around the house, especially around Easter.
Easter baskets can be the perfect combination of year-round storage and seasonal style. Easter baskets tend to be decidedly Easter eggs, but luckily Five Below has broken this seasonal curse by releasing some of the most stylish, versatile and affordable Easter baskets on the market. A must-have on the list is their new striped basket with coiled rope.
The $5 basket is made from natural rope and has a thin strap that gives it the relaxed look of a beach bag. At 11 x 9 inches, it’s perfect for tossing eggs and other goodies without worrying about things tipping over. The basket can also rest on dining tables to display Easter decorations or other related crafts.
But the best part of this basket is its versatility — it can be used around the house year-round to store electronics, plants, towels, utensils, toys and more. Another option is to repurpose it as a beach or picnic bag until the cooler months arrive. The value of the product is unreal!
