18 STYLISH TOY STORAGE SOLUTIONS FOR EVERY ROOM


1. STORAGE OTTOMANS

A storage ottoman is one of the best toy storage ideas for storing toys regardless of the space. It works well in a nursery where every inch of floor space counts and in shared rooms where you want to hide toys once playtime is over.


2. BASKETS

Finding a stylish toy storage solution might be hard but baskets are always one of the best toy storage solutions you can get. They are pretty, affordable, versatile, and can hold a lot of toys.


3. BINS

Like baskets, you can't go wrong with adding a few bins to a nursery, bedroom, or even a living space to store toys.


4.BUILT-IN-STORAGE

Built-in storage units are excellent toy storage solutions for an organized space. From storage benches to built-in bookcases- they let you stow away a lot of toys and keep them out of sight when not in use. Built-ins can be configured to suit your own specific storage needs and floor space.


5. WALL MOUNTED STORAGE LADDER

When planning toy storage solutions for a space, maximizing the vertical space is key. A wall-mounted storage ladder can add storage and makes a room feel less crowded.


6. ETAGERE

A way to make your space work harder is to incorporate vertical storage solutions, and an etagere provides additional storage without using much of a footprint.


7. BOOKCASES

And, speaking of vertical storage- bookcases are an excellent toy storage solution that doesn't sacrifice the look of your space while adding lots of storage for toys.


8.MODULAR STORAGE

There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to toy storage. Modular storage solutions let you tailor to your specific space and accommodate your storage needs.


9. CUBE ORGANIZER

A cube organizer is an undeniably brilliant storage solution for a nursery, kid's bedroom, or shared space. Pair them with pretty cube baskets to store and organize the room.



10.TOY ORGANIZER

Introducing a hard-working toy organizer dedicated to toy storage is a no-brainer, especially when adding storage to a nursery, kid's bedroom, or playroom.


11.TIERED BASKETS

If you are searching for toy storage space to make the most of your floor space -consider tiered baskets. They are beautiful and provide the perfect amount of toy storage.



12.PHOTO LEDGES

We love this clever storage idea- incorporating photo ledges for toy storage such as matchbox cars, etc.

13.HANGING BASKETS

A clever trick to maximize space in the room is to put walls to work. And, hanging baskets allow you to add toy storage without taking up floor space.


14.UNDER CRIB/ BED STORAGE

Take advantage of the space under a crib or bed to store toys.


15. CARTS

Choosing a cart with wheels is a great way to store and organize toys. We also like that you can push it out of the way after playtime.


16.HAMPERS

Keep a home tidy and organized by strategically placing hampers to store away toys. It is a good toy storage solution for smaller rooms and shared spaces.


17. DRESSER/ CABINET

The best toy storage solutions hold lots of toys, let you organize them into categories, and help keep the room free from clutter. A dresser or a cabinet is a clever toy storage solution with high-capacity storage and is aesthetically pleasing.


18. STORAGE BENCH

Multi-functional pieces are perfect for maximizing floor space and saving money on furnishings. Add a storage bench to your space-whether nursery, bedroom, or living room for storing toys and as a seating option.
