A BASKET CASE

 

Prettier than any number of novelty items available as seasonal "decoration" is a large basket. Fill it with an extra woolen throw, your guest slippers, knitting yarns, a few toys for visiting children or simply round up some teddy bears. If you decide on a smaller christmas tree it sits nicely in a bucket in the basket as well. The bonus is you won't long for its removal by New Year's Eve.

These baskets come in 3 sizes with a reasonable price tag. From Lagerhaus.
