Oli and Martina love to read, which is great. But what’s not great is that whenever they bring what they’re reading downstairs, they forget to put them back in their bookcases. Consequently, there are books on every horizontal surface in the kitchen, living room, and dining room!

I figured it was time to do something about this mess, so I made a basket and added the mushroom in the middle. This way they can put their books inside and take it upstairs to put everything back in its place. You could also use it for magazines or toys, or my favorite, lots of yarn!
