Wood Crate Toy Storage


If your initial reaction to crate storage was ick it’s going to look cheap and nasty I hope this shelving unit will change your mind. It’s bright and colourful, and I am totally in love with that string of fairy lights! Just make sure the crates you pick up don’t have any coating on them or the paint won’t stick. (via Smart School House)

Crate Storage Coffee Table and Stools


And how smart does this coffee table look? It looks like something you’d buy at Pier 1, not something you might think of when you think of crate storage! I think it’s a brilliant storage solution for your kids toys in a grown up area of your home. Oh and such a clever idea to put the table on castors so you can move it when you need to vacuum! (via Her Toolbelt)

Great Crate Book Storage


I love this idea for making a book nook reading area in the corner of your family room or playroom. Each of these useful book shelves is actually a crate cut in half. (via I Heart Organizing)

DIY Toy Box with Casters


These cute crate toy boxes have comfy cushions on the top so they double as extra seating. The casters are a clever addition because you can bring the boxes out when the kids are ready to play and then push them out of the way once they go to bed! (via This Little Street)

Easy DIY Rolling Toy or Book Crate {Toy Storage Idea}


Here’s another rolling crate but this one is intended for books and I love the addition of the quote on the side! (via My Frugal Adventures)

Crate on Wheels {DIY Toy Storage Tutorial}


I love the chalkboard labels on these rolling toy crates so you and your kids can see what’s stored inside. This is a really good idea if you have more than one of these crates lined up under a bench. (via The DIY Dreamer)

Crate Book Shelves


This has to be the easiest DIY crate storage idea, but I think it’s the one I love the most! It’s perfect for storing books and toys and as you can see it fits perfectly under a sloped ceiling (like under the stairs). Or if you have a square wall you can just build a square unit! (via Maison de Pax)

Simple Hanging Closet Storage Crates with Rope


How clever is this! A series of different shaped crates hung up with rope that you can put in a closet for neat and tidy storage! (via Table + Hearth)

Fabric Lined Craft Storage


Here’s another idea for using crates for wall storage so they act as box shelves. I love how they are painted and then lined with colourful paper. The opportunities for decorating these boxes is endless, from wrapping paper and scrapbook paper to collages from magazines! (via JOANN Fabric and Craft Stores)

Back to School Entry Way Organization


Here’s a clever idea to use crates in your mudroom or entry way to keep all of your kids’ school stuff in one place. You can fill these with shoes and boots, hats and scarves, books or sports kit! (via Gym Craft Laundry)

DIY Wooden Crate Storage and Display for Hot Wheels Cars


This is genius! What a great way to keep all of those little matchbox cars neat and tidy and on display! Time to start collecting those toilet paper tubes! (via Frugal Fun 4 Boys and Girls)

Pretty Wall Storage


Here’s another idea for using the crates as wall storage. I love the idea of painting the crates with complementary colours. (via Milka Interiors)

Wooden Crate Toy Storage


If your little one loves collecting Beanie Babies or Tsum Tsums this is the perfect way to store them! (via Frugal Fun 4 Boys and Girls)

DIY Crate Nightstand


How clever is this? If your child needs a nightstand to keep their books in order and maybe their reading lamp or night light you can make a really cute and original nightstand using a couple of crates! (via Sugar Bee Crafts)
