Rattan Christmas Tree Planters: Elegant and Practical
For a touch of modern charm, a rattan Christmas tree planter offers a more structured and luxurious look. These woven planters cradle the base of your tree beautifully, adding texture and height that give your tree a truly polished presence.
Perfect for both real and artificial trees, our grey and buff rattan tree planters are designed to be sturdy and long-lasting. If you’re using a real tree, they even help with stability and hydration. And once Christmas is over? They transition seamlessly into stylish outdoor planters, ideal for spring blooms or lush greenery all year round. Here at The Basket Company, we have a delightful selection of woven plant pots in various shapes and sizes to suit any corner of the home, inside or out!

Styling Ideas for Under and Around the Christmas Tree
Once your wicker tree skirt or rattan Christmas tree planter is in place, it’s time to add those little touches that make the space feel truly magical, a scene that looks straight from the pages of a Christmas storybook!
Matching Mini Christmas Planters
Frame your festive focal point by placing a few mini Christmas trees in matching wicker planters beside the fireplace or along the hearth. These little touches add height, balance, and a sense of natural charm to your room. For a coordinating look, echo the same tones as your tree skirt. Choose antique wash wicker for a rustic woodland feel or grey and buff rattan for a calm, contemporary aesthetic.
Style tip: Add a soft velvet ribbon or a scattering of pinecones and dried oranges around the base of each mini tree for a fragrant, festive accent.
Layer texture: Place a soft sheepskin rug or knitted throw just beyond the base for a cosy, luxurious finish.
Add light: Let fairy lights spill gently onto the floor, reflecting off the wicker for a soft, golden glow.
Finish with baskets: Use log baskets, storage baskets or display baskets to showcase beautifully wrapped gifts, spare baubles or winter foliage to complete the look.
