The Art of Containment

In January's blog - Tidy House, Tidy Mind - I shared tips for organizing and decluttering your home.
Conquering mess is achievable when “everything has its place”. If an item doesn’t have a home, find one.
Unfortunately, not everything can be hidden behind a door, and baskets are one of my favorite containment (storage) solutions to combat this. They are perfect for creating homes for items with nowhere to live. Also, they save you from wasting time searching for misplaced items, and gathering endless piles of stuff.
I recently put some of Toddlekind’s baskets in my daughter’s bedroom. These baskets are beautiful and well-made. But also, they are useful for more than just storing my daughter's toys.
The fact they are organic is important, but it was the pom-pom detail that sealed the deal for me.
After placing the baskets in their new home, I started thinking about other ways to use them besides toy storage.
