Stylish storage for kid clutter~

Now that the majority of my house is starting to look the way I'd like....I'm focusing my attention on the family room. I've had numerous comments from readers asking how I store my kids' toys. Trust me...it isn't pretty...YET.

Here's my theory on the subject. If you have kids, they have stuff. And usually lots of it. Instead of trying to decorate your home as though kids don't live there....embrace it! That doesn't mean that you have to put Winnie-the-pooh or Disney decals all over your walls. There are tons of storage and decor options that can appeal to you both.

With that in mind, today I wanted to share some pretty kid spaces to get the creative juices flowing..

LOVE the Pottery barn stuff... but IKEA has some great stuff for the budget. I'm in desperate need of new storage for the boy's room. I love the bins/ baskets!

Those are terrific spaces. Now, if only Olivia had a separate play room. *sigh*

Have you seen the site Knock Off Wood? Ana gives you instructions on how to easily make all of these for next to nothing!

oh my gosh I have all of those pictures saved in my houzz file. They are great options. And if you haven't been to knock off wood, check it out. Anna is such an amazingly generous person.
