Does your playroom look like this? That isn’t my playroom, but we’ve all been there. This is one side of mine though…total randomness.
Mr. Fix-it and I are always revisiting ways to organize the playroom. We came up with a plan…
How to Organize the Playroom
We needed a way to organize and hide all the STUFF!
We purchased the Expedit shelf and these cute green bins to store the board games and small things like Lego. Our big guy loves Lego but the pieces are too small for his little brother to play with so up they go in the first bin where only our big guy can reach them.
The craft supplies, oh the crafts! I bought this drawer set at Walmart that holds all the supplies nicely and super tidy. Music to my ears.
Finally, where to put all the big toys i.e. the big boy trucks, boats, cars, dress up stuff? Hmmm…I ventured out to my go-to store, Homesense, to find baskets. These adorable baskets were calling my name…
I added a little carpet from Ikea under each one of them to give it a little playful look and the toys are organized and put away!
Don’t you just love when a room is organized? Yes, let’s be honest…it’s a playroom so toys will come out, be on the floor and scattered, but with the additions of baskets, shelving and storage they can always find their home again. Fresh.Fabulous.Sophisticated.
Stay tuned for my next post on what to do with all that artwork your kiddies are bringing home!

organisation certainly is necessary to turn chaos into neat and orderly. Love the green boxes in the Expedit shelf unit, looks really good.

Love your tips. We are pretty organized, except for our craft supplies.
