8 Favorite Belly Baskets: They’re Popular for Good Reason

Belly Baskets Featured Image

Belly baskets are ubiquitous. And depending on whom you ask, they’re either tired or inspired.

I’m all for them. For one thing, you can’t deny their usefulness in corralling whatever your home throws its way: blankets in the den, shoes in the entry, rolls of toilet paper in the bath. Push the top of the basket down so that it pops inside and the handles disappear, essentially cutting its height in half, and you can even use it in the kitchen as a fruit bowl. For another, their soft shape feels organic and natural—and still very much of-the-moment. They can also be easily personalized; you can paint them or add pompoms (à la the Eliza Gran versions that took over your Instagram feed a couple years ago).

Best of all, there’s an upside to their popularity: Because they’re so trendy, they’re easy to find and also pretty inexpensive.

Some favorites, below.

Connected Goods Woven Collapsible Rice Belly Basket — Above: Connected Goods sells the Woven Collapsible Rice Belly Basket, handmade in Vietnam, in a chic black with natural handles. It comes in three sizes, ranging from $20 to $40.

Serena and Lily Round Belly Basket — Above: We like the mix of materials in Serena & Lily’s Round Belly Basket—straw up top, white plastic below. It’s available in two sizes; the 17.5-inch-diameter size is $58 and the 23-inch is $68.

Connected Goods Woven Weave Rice Belly Basket — Above: Another good one from Connected Goods, this Woven Weave Rice Belly Basket has a diameter at the opening of 12 inches; $35.

Ikea Fladis Belly Basket — Above: The Ikea Flådis Basket is compact (diameter of about 10 inches) and well-priced at $12.99. We also found similar versions in three sizes on sale at Newchic for $8.21 to $13.21.

Candelabra Home Leather Handle Belly Basket — Above: Candelabra Home’s Leather Handle Belly Basket features simple leather strips at the sides instead of straw handles that pop up for a more streamlined look. It comes in two sizes; the 14-inch-diameter size is currently on sale for $39 and the 18-inch-diameter size is on sale for $49.

Olli Ella Silver-Dipped Belly Basket — Above: Olli Ella, in the UK, was one of the first brands to stock the belly basket. Their Silver-Dipped Belly Basket is $35 and has a diameter of 15 inches.

Rove Concepts Greta Belly Basket — Above: Rove Concepts’ Greta Belly Basket, in brown, is bold and understated at the same time. It measures 15.7-inches-wide and costs $45.

Target 3R Studio Seagrass Belly Basket — Above: We like the low and wide shape of 3R Studio’s Seagrass Basket with Handles. It measures 19-inches-wide and is available at Target for $33.99.
