Why would you spend your hard-earned money on an Easter-specific basket that you can only pull out once a year? You know the kind we speak of — baskets with little bunny ears and a pastel egg pattern all over. Pick up one of these baskets and you can fill it with candy for the holiday, and then get more use out of it during the rest of the year.

1 / 11
  1. Mist Pom-Pom Mini, $20 at Pehr: If you’re a new mom (or happen to know one!), you’ll appreciate this sweet canvas bucket with hand-sewn, 3D pom-poms.
  2. Lined Wire Charlotte Tote Basket, $8 at World Market: We love the look of wire baskets, but stuff — especially candy! — can fall out too easily. This one has a fabric liner to keep everything contained.
  3. Beam Small Gunmetal Basket, $20 at CB2: Another good wire option (the tines are decently close together), this guy can sit in the kitchen during the off-season, holding lemons, apples, and other produce.
  4. Stash Recycled Canvas Bucket, from $12 at Maika Goods: Whether it’s full of candy, cloth napkins, or bagged snacks, the label on this canvas bucket will always be accurate.
  5. Aw Snap Cube Bin, $14 at The Land of Nod: If you ever don’t have a need for this felt bin, you can just unsnap the sides and it’ll store flat in a drawer or cabinet.
  6. Striped Fabric Bin, $8 at Target: Even though it’s not technically considered an Easter basket, this minty option looks like it was made for the holiday. In a good way!
  7. Dippy Gray & Natural Wicker Small Basket, $13 at Pier 1: We’d dip our kitchen sink if we could, so it’s no surprise that we fell for this basket. We think you will too.
  8. SKOGSTA, $10 at IKEA: When not using it for Easter goodies, you can use it to carry condiments and flatware out to the table during parties or family dinners.
  9. Small Gordian Basket, $21 at Design Ideas: This basket — which comes in white, gray, blue, and orange — is hand-knotted and made out of plastic material, so it’s sturdy yet bendy at the same time.
  10. ArtMinds Half Crate, $7 at Michael’s: Grab your paint brush to give this wood crate a custom design. Or stick with a more rustic look and leave it raw.
