Tantalizing Toy Boxes and Bins
So many toys, so many toy storage options! Here are three that caught my eye lately.
Tracey Hanmer Karl of Creative Expressions:Kids makes these hand painted toy bins - there are over fifty themes available. Update on Feb. 26, 2012: I'm no longer finding Tracey's website.
Over in the UK, Heidi Alexander-Sleap makes some pretty wonderful hand painted toy boxes. (Note: Big toy boxes can work well for dress-up clothes or other larger items; they aren't so good for smaller toys.)
And then there's this pirate ship toy box; the same gentleman also makes a fire engine toy box. Update on August 24, 2011: Sadly, the site that sold these has disappeared.
I LOVE the ship!!! But my fav is the painted box, love those kind of boxes.

Hello to Jeri, I've just noticed you've featured one of my boxes the 'harbour scene' handpainted chest, many thanks to you, what a lovely compliment to see a piece of my work featured on your page. If you ever fancy popping back, i've done a few more designs since and these can be seen on www.butterflyartworks.co.uk, thanks for drawing attention to my work, much appreciated. Best Wishes Heidi Alexander-Sleap
