Elephant Baskets Get Cool

I’d like to take a moment to compliment all of our readers. What a bunch of observant and dedicated nursery design enthusiasts we have! Just when I think I have found a fabulous and unique find, I realize a member of the Project Nursery community has already discovered it or its even been used in a room that is featured in our photo gallery. Case in point, these adorable elephant wicker baskets I first spotted in the FLOR catalog. More info on FLOR and their kid related products soon.

What I am loving about this whimsical elephant basket, which is technically a laundry hamper, is that on it’s own they can seem uncool and kitschy but paired with modern elements they become current and chic. I prefer the white version but they are available in honey and brown as well. Or add a splash of color in the room like the orange version I found on Etsy. Who would have known elephants would be so cool.

    Pam, these elephant wicker baskets are cool, even if you don’t pair it with anything! They just make your old laundry basket look more drab!

    I agree with Casey! Why go for drab looking laundry baskets when you have these? It would make a great addition to an Asian/Indian inspired room, but it is subtle enough to be in any room.
