With the new year upon us, it seems that everyone is into organization and storage, myself included. You guys should see the crap I’ve cleaned out of my closets! Since my Coke Crate Tie Organizer was such a big hit, I thought I would update an older post, DIY Metal Basket Shelving.
I just mounted (super easy!) old metal baskets to the wall and they became cookbook storage in my kitchen.
Cheap, easy, functional, and full of character! Read all about how to do it here.
You know you don’t wanna miss any of this crazy.

Tiffany says
Hi there! I know this is a pretty old post, but I have a question! What did you use to mount these? We mounted some long baskets and they left huge holes in the wall that were costly to repair. 🙁
Jenna @ Rain on a Tin Roof says
Hi Tiffany! If you go to this post: https://rainonatinroof.com/2012/07/basket-shelving/ it has some photos of how we mounted them! Hope that helps!
Erin says
HI, I have almost the exact baskets and want to do this for my sones books. What did you use to mount them to the wall?
Thanks so much.
Jenna @ Rain on a Tin Roof says
Hi Erin! You can look at this post and see how we hung them: https://rainonatinroof.com/2012/07/basket-shelving/
