Best Toy Storage For Living Room

Choosing the best toy storage for a living room can be quite tricky. You want something that can store all the many little toys in neat bins or containers and you also want them to look good so that they fit well with your living room decor.
I find that having a corner furniture is a good idea for easily hiding things away from every new visitor's eyes but I'm sure there are other toy storage solutions that are classy enough for your living room.

Some Points To Remember When Choosing Toy Storage

• Having wicker boxes in shelves often solves the clutter and mess in the living room. The problem with this is that, as versatile as wicker is, it just sometimes doesn't fit with the rest of the furniture at home.
• Try to stay away from colorful furniture. Think of it this way. The toys inside are your childrens, but buy the living room storage for you.
• My main big problem is how to store big toys. For now, I have made a big cupboard which is in the living room for this. But most of the time, I just put it away (or get the kids to do it) everytime they finish playing with it.

The Best Toy Storage Solutions I have Found

The Bench
Wooden benches are great. They can be part of the living room but they also hide the clutter. However, there isn't always a way to segregate toys this way. But I think they're classy.

Windsor Pine Storage Entryway Bench - $1,608.85

Wicker Storage
Wicker storage units are quite popular. They're usually the easiest to find plus there are reasonably priced ones that you can find online too. I personally like the Espresso color storage.

Toy Storage Units With 6 Bins

I must have tried many different kinds of toy organizers since I had children. But the one I like the most are toy storage units with bins. The bins make it easy to organize toys into different categories, it makes it easy for children to find and put away their toys, plus you can even add labels on them for a little bit of reading practice.
There are many different kinds of toy storage units of this kind, some with as many as 9 bins, some made of plastic, others made of hard wood. Whatever it is you want to fit in your child's bedroom, I'm sure you'll find one that best fits what you like. Here are some of the nice ones I've seen.

Guidecraft Classroom Furniture Toy Organizer - $90.09 This is one of my favorite of the many toy storage with bins I've seen because it's one of those furniture that can grow with your child. Take the 6 bins out and you've got yourself a bookshelf, right? This can also fit a child of any age and can even be passed on to the next child, whatever gender the child is. And it's just nice to have a toy storage with a shelf for bookshelves too.

 

Toy Storage With A Theme

For many kids, it's always nice to have a furniture in the bedroom that has pictures of their favorite characters. This usually gets them a lot more excited. I also find that this way, it's easier to get them to know the value of storing things and "cleaning up their mess". Two of the popular toy storage units of this kind are the Disney Fairies toy storage for girls and the lightning Mcqueen toy storage for boys.

Toy Boxes With Shelves For Books

Many of us parents often could not believe just how much stuff our children accumulate in the first few years of their life. I tend to be obsessed with toy organizers these days, I kid you not. One of the things I really like are toy boxes with bookshelves. Here are three of the ones I like at the moment.

3. an roll out toy box which should make it easy hiding many little toys in the room

The toy box on the bottom is not attached and can roll in and out at your convenience. This needs to be put together when it arrives so if you're giving it as a present to a little one, it's a good idea to put it together first.

There are 2 tiers for books on this toy box. What I like the most is your child can see the covers of the book clearly which I think would make a child pick the book more than usual.

The four separate bins make it easy to separate toys and to store small things that usually just get lost in the bottom of a big toy box.

Solid Wood Espresso Toy Box

Espresso Toy Boxes - Classy addition to your child's bedroom.

It's Christmas again soon! More toys for the kids and what better way to organize them than with good quality Espresso toy boxes?

Every since I had kids, I have become a little bit obsessed about organizing (or the lack thereof). The piles of toys just get bigger and bigger every year! Toys in the bedroom, in the living room, in the kitchen! You know what I'm talking about.

This is why I'm always in the lookout for good toy chests to have (now I'll have piles of toy chests, huh?). I have lots of those cheap plastic boxes to store these toys, but also love the more classy looking wooden toy boxes.

One of these that I like are the Espresso toy box that companies like Kidkraft, Lipper and Tot tutors make.
