Let me start by saying this SiliFine Baby Basket is absolutely adorable! I used it to create a baby shower gift for my cousin, and it was the talk of the party. The woven cotton material gives it that perfect rustic-chic look while being surprisingly sturdy.
The size (12" x 8" x 5") is just right - big enough to hold several baby essentials like onesies, rattles, and small blankets, but not so large that it becomes unwieldy. I particularly love the included gift bag and ribbon - they made wrapping a breeze!
However, fair warning: when this arrives, it's packed TIGHT. Mine came completely flattened from shipping. It took me about 20 minutes of careful reshaping (and some heavy books as weights) to get it back to its proper form. Not ideal if you need it last-minute for an event.
The handles are a nice touch - they make the basket easy to carry when filled with gifts. I've since repurposed mine in the nursery to hold burp cloths and pacifiers, and it looks charming on the shelf.
While the included cellophane is cute, it's quite thin. For a proper gift presentation, you might want to supplement with additional wrapping materials. That said, at this price point, this basket offers excellent value whether you're using it for gifting or organization.
Pro tip: If ordering for a specific event, buy at least 2 weeks in advance to allow time for reshaping!
