We are having kitchen extended to accommodate dining table and going to convert existing dining room into second living room/playroom. Most of dcs toys will be in there plus books.
I want to have bookshelves put in along the back wall, perhaps get a joiner to build them. Dh thinks instead we should just get big expedit boxy units from ikea for the whole wall. Then we could use some of the squares for books but others for storage, toys etc.
We already have a few if the smaller expedit units in the boys' bedrooms and IMO they just seem to attract clutter. I'm more and more convinced that what we need is not less storage but less stuff!!
I think books look nice on bookshelves and we'll have to keep them tidy as they'll be on display.
Wwyd?
