    Default Playrooms

    Hi
    I am in the process of designing my playroom.
    Does anyone have any photos of theirs that they wanna share?
    I am watching this item on ebay

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=370169582631

    And i am hoping to fiill the gaps with labelled storage boxes.
    I wanna keep the design of the room simple, with very traditional 'toy groups' if u know what i mean.

    I would be grateful for any ideas.
    Thanks
    Lisa

    actually they are hombase and they are very heavy so not held together just free stacked, but they are deep so they are not moving anywhere! they were about £100 each, homebase still sell them. boxes come separate

    I have these units if they are from Argos and they are sturdy. I haven't attached them together as with the amount of toys in and on them they aren't going anywhere

    Bottom ones have the casters on for moving to clean the playroom floor.

We had the house extended with larger kitchen, playroom and downstairs toilet for my sanity!!! It has made a huge difference!

    Oooh gosh Ive had it so long Im not sure where it came from. It may have been the Great Little Trading Company. It was about £100 I think but well worth it as the kids love it Trouble is they all fight over who gets to sit on the giraffes

    I just got rid of my book case as it was taking too much space. I now have books in wicker baskets so I can move them into the lounge/garden easily.

    This is mine. It's quite small and I can't fit much in it. I have a big wardrobe which my dad has fitted shelves in for me where I keep all the games and toys. I would love some of those storage boxes though!! x
