Let's start today's tour of colorful storage on a web site with a wonderful name: this was a tree, the home of Brosborne Woodesign Studio. This seems to be a custom piece, but it gives you an idea of what Benjamin Osborne can do.

Grange has a number of colorful pieces in its Ermitage collection; I loved that this piece was called a room tidy.
And Sweetpea & Willow, located in London and Ireland, provides "French furniture painted in gorgeous colours." [via Retro to Go]
I've mentioned Russell & Mackenna a couple times, but never in a post focused on colorful storage; it's time to rectify that, especially since you can choose from 33 paint colors. Update: See the discount coupon, good through February 15, 2010.
Russell & Mackenna also started a company called Paint My Furniture. As the web site says: "Rather than sending your old wood furniture to the landfill, we can revive it with a splash of color." For those who aren't do-it-yourselfers, and live near in or near Maryland, this might be a nice option.
The Chichester furniture from Neptune comes in your choice of 20 colors. You can see some of the products - in color - here and here.

Müller Möbelfabrikation makes steel furniture; you can find the company's products at Mod Livin'.
While the Smith System Gorilla Book Truck is intended for schools, there's no reason you couldn't use it elsewhere. Modern School Supplies is one place to buy it. [via Apartment Therapy]
For simple shelving with nicely-colored lacquered shelves, you can go to Wonk, in New York City.
And finally, let's end with this display case from Gumps.

The styles and especially colors of these furniture pieces is awesome! Would really set a room off from others.
Yes! I enjoyed seeing the pieces as well. Using a library cart is a great idea!
I especially like the display unit from Gumps.
Billf and MarySees, I'm glad you enjoying seeing these pieces. This was such a fun post to write!
MarySees, that Gumps display case is on sale for ONLY $2,995! Still a bit on the expensive side, hmm?
I just adore painted furniture, so, I love this post. Colorful storage makes me so happy.
I have a navy blue bookcase I stained myself and I just love it.
Oh, Gosh! Jeri, leave it to me to pick an expensive one!
Penelope, that's the way I would have to do it as well.
PenelopeLovesLists and MarySees: Ah, two people who are adept at staining furniture. Me? I could pay a good handyman to do it for me ...
The Cappellini drawers look neat, the colors are soothing, So simple yet elegant.
I especially like the Chichester and Gumps. Having the two different colours look great.
