Spring Cleaning Hacks for Moms: Chic + Functional Ways to Organize Your Space
Spring is in the air, and that means it’s time for a refresh—not just for your home, but for your mom life, too. Whether you’re in the thick of newborn snuggles, chasing a busy toddler, or balancing #momlife with everything else, a clutter-free, organized space can make all the difference.
But let’s be real—traditional storage bins and plastic organizers? Not the vibe. If you’re looking for practical and aesthetic storage solutions that actually fit your home’s style, you’re in the right place. We’re sharing spring cleaning hacks using our handwoven market baskets, changing baskets, Moses baskets, and diaper caddies—because baby products should be just as versatile as you are.
1. Market Baskets = The Ultimate “Everything” Organizer
Market baskets are not just for grocery runs—they’re basically the Swiss Army knife of home organization. Their spacious design, sturdy handles, and neutral aesthetic make them perfect for storing all the things while keeping your home looking effortlessly put together.
✨ Ways to Use Your Market Basket for Spring Cleaning:
✔️ Declutter the entryway: Toss in shoes, sunglasses, and everyday grab-and-go items to keep them from piling up.
✔️ Toy storage (without the eyesore): Keep playroom chaos under control by stashing blocks, stuffed animals, or books in a stylish woven basket.
✔️ Laundry catch-all: Use it for those “worn-but-not-dirty” clothes that usually end up on that chair.
✨ Pro Tip: Label your baskets with cute tags or tie a swaddle around the handle for an extra touch of ✨aesthetic✨ organization.
2. Repurpose Your Changing Basket for Stylish Countertop Storage
Your baby may have outgrown the diaper changes (cue the tears), but that doesn’t mean your Plum + Sparrow changing basket has to sit in storage. Its shallow, structured shape makes it perfect for organizing countertops, dressers, or bathroom vanities.
✨ Ways to Use Your Changing Basket for Spring Cleaning:
✔️ Bathroom organization: Store skincare, lotions, and everyday beauty essentials in one place.
✔️ Coffee table catch-all: Keep remote controls, coasters, and books neatly displayed.
✔️ Kitchen helper: Perfect for storing napkins, spices, or fruit while adding a touch of natural texture to your space.
✨ Pro Tip: Line your basket with a swaddle for an effortless, boho-chic look (bonus: it makes cleaning up spills even easier).
3. Turn Your Moses Basket into a Chic Storage Solution
Moses baskets aren’t just for newborn naps—they’re an instant upgrade to your storage game. With their structured yet lightweight design, they’re the perfect way to organize while keeping things effortlessly stylish.
✨ Ways to Use Your Moses Basket for Spring Cleaning:
✔️ Closet organization: Use it to store seasonal clothes, extra blankets, or accessories.
✔️ Pet bed: Give your fur baby a cozy, stylish sleeping spot (they’ll love it, trust us).
✔️ Guest room refresh: Fill it with extra towels, toiletries, and cozy essentials for a welcoming touch.
✨ Pro Tip: Place a folded knitted blanket inside for a cozy, lived-in look that’s also functional.
4. Diaper Caddies = The Minimalist Mom’s Best Friend
If you’re not using your diaper caddy for diapers anymore (or even if you still are), it’s time to get creative. These compact yet spacious baskets are perfect for keeping small essentials organized in any room.
✨ Ways to Use Your Diaper Caddy for Spring Cleaning:
✔️ Car organization: Store snacks, wipes, hand sanitizer, and all those just-in-case mom essentials.
✔️ Desk decluttering: Keep notebooks, chargers, and office supplies in one easy-to-grab spot.
✔️ Self-care station: Fill it with skincare, journals, and candles for a little you time.
✨ Pro Tip: Keep one on your nightstand stocked with everything you need for those late-night TikTok scrolls (we see you).
