A few days ago when I wrote about towel storage ideas, the one solution that stood out for me was wire baskets. The style is incredible. Yeah, I do have a soft spot for anything country, shabby chic, flea market style. But they basket… containers… whatever you want to call them, offer a lot of storage solutions.
You can use them in every room:
- Bathrooms
- Bedrooms
- Kitchen & pantries
- Playrooms
- Offices
- Living Rooms
Of course, I headed over to Amazon to see what kinds of wire and metal storage ideas I could find. A lot. I chose 18 of my favorite ideas to share with you in three categories.
Hanging and Wall Mounted Wire Baskets
I’m loving hanging baskets and not just ones that you hang from a hook in the ceiling. I like the idea of hanging them from hooks on towel racks or just hooks attached directly to a wall. Or, as you can see from some of these ideas below, they can be mounted directly to a wall. Just make sure that however you hang or mount these basket, they held securely.

Small Wire and Metal Baskets & Bins
I’m an out-of-the-box thinker, especially when it comes to storage. Just because an item is meant for one thing doesn’t mean you can’t use it for another. Take the first basket below. It’s meant to collect eggs, but it works just as well holding fruit or cleaning products. And the two wine racks below… well, how they’re perfect for towels.
