Wall basket approaches.
| Style | Depth | Contents |
|---|---|---|
| Flat plate | 1–2 in | Empty |
| 4 in | Dried florals | |
| Grouped | Varies | Collection |
Wall Damage
Use appropriate anchor for weight — drywall alone fails over 5 lb.
Dye Runoff
Test dyed reed for colorfastness before hanging on light walls.
Dust
Woven surfaces collect dust — gentle vacuum not water on natural reed.
Safety Notes
- Confirm wall anchor rated for basket plus contents.
- Keep away from direct heat registers — dries and cracks reed.
