Toys, Toys Everywhere…

Toys Toys      It is great to be organized; but what do you do when you cannot fit another ‘organizer’ in your living room?  

I have 8, yes, 8 toy baskets in my living room, all in various shades of green.  And no, I’m not proud of this. 

It started out innocently enough-

I’m pretty neat and tidy.  I don’t want toys just lying around everywhere.  I want structure, not chaos…

‘Let’s get some toy baskets!  Perfect!  We can just throw toys in them, and things will be ‘put away’…’ 

And then I just kept getting more baskets… 

To put toys, and toys, and toys in. 

And I swear I de-clutter on a pretty regular basis!  

But I have baskets everywhere now-

I have baskets for Legos, cars, trucks, marble games, Tinker Toys, more cars, more trucks, and I even have a little basket for the 4 remotes we have (don’t even get me started on that one).   

I like a house to be lived-in, and use every room, but this is getting ridiculous! 

Will there ever be a day that I don’t have hundreds of matchbox cars and  hotwheels cars in rooms all over the house? 

When will I stop finding little lego pieces in the couch?  

Will there ever be a time that I don’t see a Dr. Seuss book in a corner?…
