Show me your toy storage solutions! In desperate need of a new arrangement for our toys. I'm thinking I would like to do baskets or canvas storage bins but I always love to see what other people have. Show me what you have!

We have tall bookcases from target and canvas bins. I just purged half our toys and made labels for the bins - the labels have helped us put things away so much easier!

@Canoli: I just got this yesterday! For our sons elephant themed nursery. It's working great for his toys even though its technically a hamper. I couldnt stand trying to arrange them all on his shelves any longer!
-
@wrkbrk: I've been eying that for ages - I'm a huge elephant fan. So cute!!! Does it seem durable?
-
@PinkElephant: Yep!! It's sturdy and nicely made. We gotta medium but could have gone for the large!

I have the Storage Palooza bins from land of nod. Really like them. We live in an apartment so we have them in a corner of our living room. I have loosely given each bin a category and it helps a lot when putting stuff away.
They have lots of colors and a few different configurations. I like that they are big and easy for him to get toys from. And easy for him to put things into as well.http://m.landofnod.com/storagepalooza-white/f4073
For things like stuffed animals we have these:

We have this bookshelf unit from ikea (kallax on top of a cabinet with doors) and it stores a ton of toys (pus extra stuff from our kitchen, the bottom cabinets have Costco bulk buys at the moment). It would look a lot nicer if we tidied and organized it a little better but it's easy to throw everything into the bins (also IKEA).

@Canoli: My DD is only a year old so we don't need to much toy storage yet but we just went out and got this unit from Ikea. We do a toy rotation so we keep a minimal amount of things out. The two bins holding things like mega blocks and books/stuffed animals.

@wrkbrk: Where did you buy the elephant hamper from? Home depot?
-
We have 2 ikea expedits ( now called kallex)
A shower bar to hang dress up clothes
Bins from target -
@agold: Amazon but they used a third party dealer.
-
We have the same kallax unit and storage bins as @Foodnerd81: Right now we also have a big bookshelf that has movies and books on it, but eventually we'll get rid of the bookshelf and probably get a bigger kallax unit and more bins. The bins aren't labeled and they're kind of messy, but we do have a slight semblance of a system to them, so for now it works.

@Mamaof2: oh I love the dress up clothes hanger! When we have a little more space will definitely try to remember that! Right now dress up clothes are jammed in one of our bins.
-
84% of their toys are in a corner of the family room. We got that kids sized dresser unit off CL a few years back and we filled it with dress up clothes as Dd1's Christmas present. Got the storage bin unit for free from a old co-worker!
Dress up stuff is in the closet, drawers house puzzles, etc.
Note: I just cleaned/purged so everything is super organized! Haha
