A common fixture in garages, tool sheds, and woodworking shops, pegboard is a storage favorite that homeowners appreciate for its versatility and low-fuss installation. Mandy painted hers a soothing gray before making it the home base for several nursery essentials, plus a few objects of sentimental value.

2. SPIN A WEB

Cargo netting: It’s not just for camper vans! For an easy kids’ room storage pouch, affix a net to a wall, the back of a door, or even the side of a bed. Shop online or at your local sporting goods store; choose netting that can hold smaller toys but is wide enough to make its contents plainly visible.

3. RACK ‘EM UP

Finding a shipping pallet free of chemical treatment, termite infestation, and mold growth isn’t always easy. But if you can procure one, you’re halfway to completing this kids’ room storage rack, perfect for sneakers and athletic shoes. Coat on a stain, then fasten your pallet to the wall. No woodworking required!

4. MAKE A SLING

Here’s a kids’ room storage solution adoptable by any parent of a young bookworm who has a tendency to leave scattered books in her wake. Combining wooden dowels, curtain rod brackets, and patterned fabric, Megan fashioned an inventive “sling” that mounts at children’s eye level.

5. HACK IT UP

No closet? Eschew the traditional, floor space-hogging chest of drawers in favor of a clothing storage ”hack” like this one. In a stroke of genius, its creator simply removed one shelf from a modular bookcase, replacing it with a rod upon which her daughter’s sweaters, dresses, and overalls hang within easy reach.

Don’t you agree?  Super fun ideas!
