S/O What do you store in baskets?

To help inspire everyone, please share how you use baskets to organize your home.

PIPs are encouraged.

No PIPs from me right now; I'm feeling a little under the weather.

I use baskets in a variety of ways:

• DD's movies and DH's video games are in their own nice baskets
  
• various cords for phones and cameras are in a small one on top of the fridge
  
• I have an out basket on the counter to contain the items that need to be taken somewhere out of the house.
  
• We fold all of our clothes in the bedroom, and I store the spare socks in a small basket on my dresser. It sits on top of a stack of books so the contents aren't visible. I also have a basket of belts on my dresser.
  
• DH has a matching basket on his dresser with DVDs and the remote for the DVD player.
  
• In our bathroom tall cabinet, I use plastic baskets to store my hair supplies (one for everyday use; another for special occasion), and another one to store rarely used items.
  
• We have a shelf to put up in our downstairs half bathroom where I'll place two or three nice baskets to corral gloves, hats and scarves in the winter; and sunblock, hats and the like in the summer.

Oh, and I forgot DD's room and bathroom:

• I store her diapers and supplies on the dresser/changer in a basket.
  
• I use a large basket in the corner for her stuffed animals.
  
• Her rarely used creams and ointments are stored on her vanity if a basket.
  
• I also store her nebulizer machine and attachments in a little plastic basket with a handle. It makes carrying it place to place so much easier.
  
• I also forgot about the large baskets under our lack end tables in the living room. One has DD's toys; the other has our blankets and a neck massager.
