Storage is rarely exciting (unless you're Marie Kondo), but everyone needs it. It can help transform your home from a jumbled mess to an organised haven, freeing up space in both your house and brain.

Just like a great KitchenAid or toaster can do wonders to make your life easier, so can storage options that are the perfect size for all those nooks and crannies.

The good news is, you don’t have to settle for boring plastic boxes for all of your storage needs, or for it to be hidden away. Quite the opposite, in fact. You can get some of the best storage boxes for your needs at low cost, but with maximum style. So much so you’ll want them on display. Whether they’re individual storage boxes, wooden storage boxes or wicker, there’s something for you.

Here are our favourite small storage baskets that will add style and storage to your home:
