The amount of toys, supplies, clothing, parts, pieces and overall clutter that accumulates with four small children is mind-blowing. It seems like every toy has no less than 175 pieces and once the box is opened, these pieces are found scattered throughout the house. I needed to take control my family’s situation before it got out of hand. So then it began, my search for stylish kids’ storage solutions. I mean it does have to look good too!

During my hunt, I came across something wonderful. Did you know that there are websites dedicated to transforming Ikea furniture into something incredible? What? Where have I been lately and how did I not see this before? Stylish, low-cost ways to clear up the kid-clutter while simultaneously adding high-design are right up my alley.
