Let me start by saying this basket is *adorable*. I used it as a baby shower gift holder, stuffing it with tiny onesies, pacifiers, and a soft rattle. The woven cotton material gives it that cozy, handmade feel—way better than stiff wooden baskets. It’s surprisingly sturdy too; no fraying edges or wobbly handles.
The size? Just right. At 12 inches, it fits snugly on a nursery shelf but holds enough to make a practical gift (think diapers, lotions, or even a small stuffed animal). The included ribbon and gift bag were a nice touch—I tied the ribbon around the handles for extra charm.
Fair warning: It arrives *flattened* like a pancake. Reshaping took patience (pro tip: stuff it with towels overnight). Once poofed up, though, it held its form perfectly. I’d skip last-minute orders if you need it pristine for an event.
Bonus points? My cat claimed it as her new nap spot—the open weave lets her poke her paws in. Multifunctional win!
