Toy storage suggestions Please .....W/PICS

so DDs room is full and so is the closet
I am really looking for a place to keep her toys in the living room instead of on the floor. We have a very small living room.(excuse the mess I am babysitting my nephew and he was playing in here )
I am picking up 2 cheap end tables for now so I can put my lamps on them
I was thinking of getting a chest or an ottoman but I dont want to spend alot$$ but I am looking for any suggestions really
TIA

We have Little Tykes toy boxes in our den and their bedrooms. They hold a lot and I like that the lid is lift off, so for the time being I can store them under my bed and not worry about them getting hit in the head with the lid.

This one in different colors depending on which room they are in

I think that one you posted is soooo nice

Did you look on overstock? I saw a lot there and they weren't that much $$.

I have seen storage cubes made out of microfiber used in place of a coffee table and also used under sofa tables. I really like this idea because it serves many functions as also gives you extra seating. I've seen these cubes all over from home goods to catalogs like home decorators and ballard's.

I have a wicker storage chest similar to this in my family room.



It looks like a piece of furniture which is what I wanted. My kids have a playroom downstairs so this was just for some small toys upstairs.

I got it at Marshall's (the one and only time I went into that store.) I believe it was $45 or so.
