Our home so lacks for storage. What is your favorite storage item in your home! For those of you with children at home, what have you found helps in their rooms, other than a toy box. My kids have some toys that you can't put in a toy box.

Thanks,

Twinsmom

Denise, when my kids were little, and space/storage did not excist, I got some netting, and 3 hooks, put hooks in ceiling and put anything that wasn't real heavy in the net, and hung it from ceiling. Winter/summer clothes would be traded out into plastic tubs and stored in a shed. Also a rule in our house was, you got a new toy, and you gave away an old toy.

I do the same as Teresa. I also have milk crates on their sides under the bed. They just fit (if you lift the bed , slide them under, then set it back down on them) and are perfect for smaller toys or books. Plus they keep stuff from being kicked up under the bed. Plus, think vertical! Shelving! Shelving! Shelving!

My favorite storage suggestion: Reduce what to have until you LOVE EVERYTHING you do have.

If it's not illegal, unsafe, or immoral, why not try anything once? Who knows? You may come back for a second helping!
