We are moving and will now have a small playroom for the kids, and because we have 7 trillion toys we need some storage help. And I cant spend that much $$.
Any Creative suggestions? Pictures????

OH IKEA! I cannot believe I didnt look there. I saw some cubes at Target today , decently priced that might work.

Re: Playroom Storage..Ideas...Pics?
You mentioned you are moving so you'll have lots of boxes I'm assuming. If you want a really cheap idea I kept a couple of the smaller sturdy boxes (we kept some office boxes that have handles on the side and a top) through some stickers on it or had DD color on it and instant toy box!

Only issue with that is they can move them and will stand on them..and they are not sturdy enough for standing....They already use anything and everything they can find to stand on....And the twins also eat and suck on everything and would have a cardboard box chewed apart in less then an hr....

We have the Ikea Trofast system. The bins are quite durable and hold a lot. They have a bunch of different frames and bin sizes that you can use and the frames are quite durable and can be anchored to a wall.
Oh and it was pretty cheap too. We paid less than $100 for the frame and bins(we got extra bins)
We have this frame and some of both bin sizes plus 1 of the full size bin

Re: Playroom Storage..Ideas...Pics?
We just got the cubes and bins from Target and I was actually amazed at how much I was able to fit in there. We also got the ottomans from there that have storage in them.
We had a lot of puzzles and to avoid storing all those boxes, I put the pieces in ziplock bags and cut out the pictures. That was a huge space-saver for us! Image Attachment(s):

We have the Ikea system in white.
I love it. So much easier. I put labels on the bins so I know how to clean the room in 5 minutes.
I have 2 different style set up.
I have 2 of those. I really like them because I can put the "bulky" items on top and the 2 bottom top shelves are not too high for DS to reach.
I also have that one in whilte. But insted of bins, I have the shelf option.
I put all his books in it.

I have the first one you posted(closetmade Cubeicals) The 9 square one is 40 I think and the bins are about 12. I bought 3 bins and the rest are open. It works great! And comes with a wall anchor
