What a gorgeous room! I have room-envy!! These are great tips, it’s so hard to control all the junk that somehow manages to creep into our house. My kids are pretty good about giving things away but even so, they have a way of cherishing the most unusual things (broken plastic toys, a handful of used metro cards, etc). Never enough room to store all the stuff!
i love this room! how amazing is that circular storage system with the stuffed animals? love that. and i like that one of the tips is “be friendly to the environment.” i recently saw some beautiful eco-friendly, modern kids furniture at feelmorehuman.com. here’s a link to it! http://shop.feelmorehuman.com/m-27-oeuf.aspx
