Lego Storage

My nine year old adores Lego.  If he ever has money burning a hole in his pocket Lego is usually what he’ll buy with it.

The problem has always been how to store it all.  In the past we have used the plastic drawers on wheels type of storage.

This worked great for many years but as his collection grew we moved to a couple of big storage containers that fit right under his bed instead.

My son actually prefers this method because he can pull the whole thing out when he needs to and just slide it back under the bed when he is done.  And because the bins are long and shallow it’s pretty easy for him to find what he needs.

There are so many different ways to store Lego so what I’d like to do today is add a Mr. Linky to this post.  If you’ve ever posted about how you organize Lego in your house please feel free to add your link below or just share in the comments.  Updated:  Mr. Linky is being totally temperamental today (and causing my site to load slowly) so we’ll just have to discuss in the comments.

To get us started I wanted to link up to a post I did last year about a fantastic Lego storage solution ~ a homemade Lego table.  Very clever!

Storage Star ~ Lego storage!

I often get asked about Lego storage ideas. I went back through my archives trying to locate the post I did about how I store my son’s Legos and couldn’t find it which means I didn’t do one but totally thought I did. Oops, what can I say :)

For today though I want to direct your attention to an AMAZING Lego storage solution that I found on the Lost Button Studio blog. I love it when I stumble upon brillance such as this.

Isn’t that smart! Jessica’s husband built that himself and I just thought it was so clever which is why Jessica is receiving today’s Storage Star. What a great way to keep all those Lego pieces contained and up off the floor. You really must go see the rest of her playroom makeover. The cubbies she uses are also fantastic!! Well done Jessica!

Okay so now my question is, for those of us who perhaps don’t have super handy husbands, how do you store your Lego?
