Add some detailsWhat's the easiest way to make a toybox? for your fellow Hometalkers!
The plastic one that we have is so bulky, it takes up a lot of space but doesn't hold a lot in it so I was wondering if there's a easy way to create one instead of buying an expensive one.

Depends on where you are going to place it, how much money you have & age of your child. For toddlers I would recommend something without a lid to avoid any accidents. Also, an open container is good for teaching them to put toys away. Any kind of basket is good & you can often find these at yard sales or thrift stores. If you have an older child there are lots of ideas & you can even ask your child what suggestions they might have about keeping their toys organized. You'd be surprised at how clever kids can be!
You can hang a fishnet in the corner for the soft toys. A rubber bucket will work for the other toys. Washi tape will also decorate the outside.
Both awesome ideas!! Thanks girls! :)
