Wicker baskets and other items made using this method are currently at the peak of popularity.
They are used not only as decoration, but also as a place to store a variety of things: clothes, dishes, towels and other textiles, cosmetics and household chemicals... We can go on and on.
To the listed advantages, we can add a few more - a stylish, beautiful and neat appearance, as well as the fact that wicker products fit perfectly into any interior.
The only problem is that such designs cannot be called practical.
Due to temperature changes, excessive moisture and other external factors, the material may be damaged.
In addition, questions arise about cleaning the baskets: aggressive household chemicals can also damage the weaving.
But this does not mean that wicker baskets cannot be cleaned - this needs to be done, it is just better to use ordinary salt rather than store-bought products.
Two tablespoons of white salt crystals should be dissolved in a liter of water, then wet a cloth in the resulting solution and gently rub the product into the weave.
As a result, the baskets will become cleaner and their service life will increase.
