Did You Say Toy Room Storage?

Before the ITSO storage system entered our life, we kept kids' toys in huge bins that tottered precariously on a bookcase. Our clean-up routine consisted of, "let's get everything off the floor and somehow fit it on the shelf so the room doesn't look like a mess," all while holding our breath hoping nothing falls.

It didn't work.

In search of a customizable storage system, we discovered the ITSO line at Target. We bought an assortment of white cubbies and coordinating boxes, bins, drawers and shelves. We lined one of the walls in the toy room with the cubbies, and filled them with containers of different sizes to fit the toys.

Now, when it's clean up time, the kids (sometimes) get in on the act. They know where everything goes, and when they're inspired (aka: threatened), they take charge and do a really good job.

Depending on how many ITSO pieces you buy, the sytem can get pricey, but it has done an impeccable job of bringing order to an otherwise chaotic room.
