Stuffed Animal Storage on Wall With Milk Crates (Affordable!)
My daughter has WAY too many stuffed animals! I needed a (fast and cheap) way to get them off the floor...
Found colorful milk crates at a discount store for $3.45 each (super easy to find during back to school time). Daughter and I chose a pattern that "didn't look too predictable" (her words, she's 10 - I am going to have my work cut out for me with her, lol).
It would have been WAY easier to just screw them into the wall, but we are in a rental, so I used Command hooks. I chose the kind that are a little flatter with the swinging metal hook, so there wouldn't be too much bulk behind the crates. I used two per crate since I knew there wouldn't be much weight in them.
I started withe the upper right and got it as level as I could and went from there. All in all took about 15-20 minutes. Then we added the critters.
Total cost including hooks less than $40!
