Home Bargains shopper 'gasps' after spotting 'amazing' £15 decor
Home Bargains often delights shoppers with its selection of home and garden decor. Now, the retailer could have another hit with a "gorgeous" new range that's exciting fans. A shopper revealed she "literally gasped" when she spotted the new wicker basket planters, which are available in three sizes.
According to TikTok user @weir_home, there's a large basket for £19.99, a medium basket for £14.99, and a small basket for £9.99. The blogger had a clear vision for the medium basket she purchased, and viewers loved her stunning results.
As seen in the viral clip, the savvy shopper used the basket to display a faux tree she'd purchased from Amazon. The shopper added a few boxes at the bottom of the basket to add height to her plant, then filled the base with a blanket to hold the plant in place and covered the top with decorative stones, which she also purchased from Home Bargains.
Captioning her post, the sharp-eyed shopper said: "Literally gasped when I walked into home bargains today - just look how amazing these wicker basket planters are. I thought I'd style this one indoors but I definetely want to go back & get some for the garden."
Viewers praised the finished look. Someone commented: "Love." Another wrote: "That pot is so gorg! Think I'll be making a trip." A third praised: "Love these baskets."
Someone else revealed: "Such a fab idea I got mine for some lavender plants outdoors." A different shopper shared: "I have that basket in my hall I use it to put shoes in to save dirt & grit going in my living room."
It doesn't look like the baskets are available on Home Bargains' website. However, shoppers looking to add more plants around their home might like the Jardin Artificial Rose Hanging Basket, from £16.99.
For those looking for a storage basket, there's also a £9.99 Home Collections Willow Log Basket and a £7.99 The Kids Edit Flower Basket. You can also draw inspiration from shoppers and use the baskets to display faux plants inside your home.
In more Home Bargains news, shoppers love a "perfect" £20 garden lounger "ideal for summer days." The Outdoor Living Collection Nevada Folding Sun Lounger caught attention on social media when it was shared by Facebook page Money Saver By Dansway. Someone replied: "Oooh love this." A second added: "For summer days!"
Another said: "That's the cheapest I've ever seen it! Have to go get 2 before they sell out!!" A different fan claimed: "On my way I'm buying 20." The product description suggests the lounger is lightweight and easy to store in the winter.
It states: "Relax in comfort with The Outdoor Living Collection Nevada Folding Sun Lounger. This lightweight, multi-position lounger is easy to store in winter and features a convenient carry handle."

Fast-growing lawn seed can transform gardens 'in 10 days' with 'thick and lush' grass
Fast-growing lawn seed can transform gardens 'in 10 days' with 'thick and lush' grass Gardeners says the pet-friendly product breathes new life into lawns To get your garden looking its best, try reseeding (Image: Akabei via Getty Images) After what can only be described as a scorching UK summer, many gardens are looking worse for wear. While basking in endless sunshine and heatwaves might feel like a dream, our lawns often pay the price - turning dry, patchy, and lifeless. If your grass has gone from lush green to brittle brown, you're not alone. Luckily, there's an easy fix: reseeding. Garden lovers hoping to revive their tired turf can turn to grass seed as a reliable, cost-effective solution. While local garden centres stock plenty of options, you don't even need to leave the house as many top-rated products are available on Amazon for speedy doorstep delivery. One brand that's been gaining serious attention is GroundMaster. Their most popular product is the Premium Lawn Grass Seed, which is available in a variety of bag sizes, ranging from as small as 500grams to as large as 25kg sacks. Prices vary from £10 for the smallest bag to £124.99 for the largest option. The grass seeds provide coverage up to 60 square metres per kg. They're also pet-friendly and can breathe new life into lawns in any season. So far, the product has garnered more than 5,000 customer reviews and ratings on Amazon, reports the Mirror. One customer reported seeing results in '10 days', after adhering to the instructions on the pack. They added: "I also sprinkled a thin layer of fine soil over the top to hide the seed from the birds that would have eaten it all. "I kept the seed watered - never letting it dry out, then about 10 days later the seed just burst into life. I've now got a nice green lawn. This is the second 5kg bag of this I've bought, and I'd buy it if I needed any more." Meanwhile, B&Q stocks Verve Universal Grass seeds for £10 per 1.5kg box. The product boasts excellent reviews, with one customer commenting: "Bought before and renewed lawn resulting in thick, lush grass even in shady areas." Specialist shade-resistant grass seed is also on offer, such as the Gro-Sure Shady Lawn Seed, priced at £9 from Wickes. Its blue coating deters birds whilst providing nourishment to the seed. Another Amazon customer who tried GroundMaster's Premium Lawn Grass Seed reported 'fast-growing' results and a 'lovely, strong-looking grass'. They added: "Approximately three weeks after planting and watering the seeds well, the grass started to come through, and it's looking really good. "It still needs to thicken up a bit, but I am pleased with its progress so far and would recommend this seed." Love dreamy Welsh homes?

Not quite living up to expectations." An additional purchaser commented: "Great value for money! I'm forever buying boxes of seed, especially in the spring, to bring the grass back to life after winter. I decided to go for a 5kg bag to help me, as the lawn was so patchy.

GroundMaster's Premium Lawn Seed can be purchased on Amazon.
