Toy Storage Baskets for Every Room
Toys have a habit of spreading from the playroom to the lounge, the landing and the bottom of the stairs. A few good toy storage baskets give everything a home, so children know exactly where things live and where they go back at the end of the day. Our range covers rope, woven, jute and canvas designs, so you can mix and match styles to suit each room.
Rope Baskets for Toys
Our Rope Storage Basket is a family favourite. It comes in plain ivory, cashmere, grey, sage green and rose pink, plus two-tone designs in ivory with forest green, galaxy blue, cornflower blue, terracotta, buttercup yellow and more. For smaller treasures like hair clips, crayons or toy cars, the Short Rope Basket comes in ivory, rose pink and sage green. Prefer something with a natural finish? The Paper Rope Storage Basket and Jute Storage Basket bring a calm, earthy feel to bedrooms and nurseries.
Woven Baskets With Playful Prints
If your little one likes their storage to have a bit of personality, our Woven Storage Baskets are covered in fun prints including Dinosaur Explorer, Space Explorer, World Map, Woodland, Transport Adventure, Fruit, Rainbow Stripe and Pastel Spot. They match many of our themed bedroom collections, so it is easy to pull a room together. For a statement piece, the Water Hyacinth Storage Basket in Strawberry is a showstopper on any playroom floor.
Baskets for Cube Storage
Our Canvas Storage Cubes are made to pair with our cube storage units, turning open shelves into tidy drawers that little hands can pull out and push back in. Choose from gingham, stripes, stars, florals and animal designs like Bear and Bunny, or keep things simple with plain white, pink or ocean blue. Mix a few prints in one unit for a playful look, or stick to one colour for a calmer room.
Need something that folds flat when you are not using it? Our Aykasa folding crates are a handy extra for car boots, holidays and sleepovers.
Soft Toy Storage Made Simple
Soft toys take up a surprising amount of space. Deep rope and woven baskets are ideal for teddies, puppets and dressing-up clothes because children can see what is inside, pull out a favourite and throw it back in without any fuss. Keep one basket by the bed for bedtime buddies and another in the playroom for everyday cuddles.
Nursery Baskets for Little Essentials
A basket or two is a nursery must-have. Use them for nappies, muslins, bath toys and board books, all within easy reach of the changing area. Neutral shades like ivory, cashmere and natural jute sit beautifully in a calm nursery, and they will still suit the room when your baby becomes a busy toddler.

How to Choose the Right Toy Basket
Think About What Is Going In It
Big, bulky toys like soft toys and building blocks need a deep basket. Small pieces like crayons, cars and figures are easier to find in a shorter basket. Many families find a mix of sizes works best.
Think About Where It Will Live
Floor baskets are great for toys that come out every day. Canvas storage cubes work best in a cube unit where they double as drawers. Check the size on each product page against your space before you order.
Let Your Child Help Choose
Children are far more likely to tidy up if they love their basket. Letting them pick a print, whether that is dinosaurs, rainbows or woodland animals, can turn tidy-up time into something they enjoy. For bigger tidying jobs, see our full toy storage range.

Toy Basket FAQs
What are the best baskets for toys?
The best toy baskets are sturdy, easy for children to carry and open at the top so toys are simple to find. Rope baskets are great for soft toys and bigger items, woven baskets add a fun print to the room, and canvas storage cubes are ideal if you have a cube storage unit.
Do your canvas storage cubes fit cube storage units?
Yes, our canvas storage cubes are made to pair with our cube storage, including the Abbeville range. If you are using them with a unit from somewhere else, check the measurements on the product page before ordering.
Are rope baskets good for soft toys?
Rope baskets are one of the best options for soft toys. They are deep enough for teddies and puppets, and children can see what is inside, which makes it easy to grab a favourite and put it back again.
How many toy baskets do I need?
Most families start with two or three: one deep basket for soft toys, one shorter basket for small bits like cars or crayons, and one for books or dressing-up. You can always add more as your child's collection grows.
Can I use toy baskets in a nursery?
Absolutely. Baskets are perfect for nappies, muslins, bath toys and board books. Neutral colours like ivory, cashmere and natural jute suit most nurseries and will still work as your baby grows into a toddler.
