Re: What Do You Think Of Basket Coffee Tables?

Maybe not the ones pictured, but if in a tighter weave and without the rope trim I'd use something similar. I do not have a formal jiving room, nor is it super casual, so I like this idea. I do have a nice storage basket chest in my bedroom and love it. No snagging problem. Might be interesting to see if it would work in the living room...hmmm...

Re: What Do You Think Of Basket Coffee Tables?

I'm torn, @jubilant ,  since on the one hand I love rattan, wicker, anything that brings in a natural, texture-y sort of feeling.  I don't care, though, for the round, hamper-like ones that they used in this room.  But a really good looking, "chest"- like basket like @SunValley mentioned, yeah, that would be great.

 

Really well-desiged baskets are a treasure!

I got rid of my coffee tables and one of my end tables. I have a big dog with a big, bushy tail.

Re: What Do You Think Of Basket Coffee Tables?

Although they look nice in this particular space and coordinate well with the rest of the decor....  I think they arent practical as coffee tables ....not much space to put things on....

As @Meowingkitty  said if one has kitties they'd become a favorite "scratching post"..... so reasons to just get a regular wood coffee table....

They would work well in the right space.  The ones pictured would be great in a smaller space.
