How do you store sylvanian family buildings

We have got so many (they're my daughters but I love them with all my heart🤣 )
How do you store them while they're not being played with? I've got a 2x2 kallax at the mo but it's not big enough

In their original boxes, although going to get a table in DD's room for her to keep the houses out.

In the charity shop. And it feels good!

In the cupboard under the stairs at the moment!

A colleague of mine has put an old dining table in the corner of their playroom and they have set up a Sylvanians village. It's delightful but probably not a solution for everyone. Ours are in boxes in the loft, occasionally being got out for small visitors.

We got DD a mid height bed and tented the bottom so she could put things like that underneath. Although barbie house was too tall to go under apparently.

I read somewhere that if you take their roofs off they can stack on top of each other to make a giant tower block. Not sure if that's correct cos as you can see from my user name I'm a Lego gal.

I have the same problem. I also need ideas for storing all the small bits!

I was about to say they stack!

Not the pointy roof ones, but the ones with flat-ish roofs stack.

Google it for some inspo! When you start fiddling with them you'll be surprised by what fits where

Charity shop?!how dare you Grin we use chocolate tubs (roses etc) for little bits.
Some do stack I'd forgotten that!

Put shelves on the wall.

Ds had a cabin bed and we had stuff under neath (in his case Lego!). Also shelves on the wall which he keeps the models on.

The small bits are now under his bed in a box - we brought an ottoman for this reason!
