There is a lot of talk right now out there in blogger world about organization (must be back to school time) and I wanted to show you the one inexpensive organizational tool that is working for us right now (the rest of the stuff I just keep organizing and reorganizing).
My hubby bought a big heavy duty cardboard cylindar from Home Depot that is used to form cement posts. Then he cut it into 1 foot deep sections. I spray painted the outside and he attached them together and to the wall using L brackets.
It has worked out great for getting random toys off the floor. However, I think I need a whole wall of them because if you look right next to the circle storage you'll see the beginning of a whole row of ikea containers full of stuff on the floor.
What a neat idea.
ReplyDeleteI am extremely late on this but I am just discovering how awesome your blog is :) Here is my link http://oursweetpeasinapod.blogspot.com/2009/07/organizing-all-little-toys-that-become.html
ReplyDeleteBTW that is a great idea. My husband would probably have some fun designing that!
Great idea! We have a couple cone shaped cubbies from IKEA mounted on the wall but I haven't seen them there in a long time. Your storage idea would work in my son's Star Wars themed room!
ReplyDeleteWow!! He did an amazing job! This is awesome.
ReplyDeleteNeat idea, love the cheap but fabulous shelving!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this idea! I know exactly where I'm going to use it... I have been searching and searching for the perfect organizer for a wasted corner in my boys' room but it can't be too wide because there is a bed, a vent, and a door close by. Setting these up in the corner will be awesome! Especially because I can fan them out into a cool design perhaps making room for whatever is in the way. Alright... where's my measuring tape = )
ReplyDeleteThat is such a super storage idea!
ReplyDeleteCan you post a tutorial on how you attached them together please.
