Review - Plastic Box Shop

I was recently given the opportunity to review some plastic storage boxes from Plastic Box Shop. I love storage and organising products, so I had a lovely time browsing the website. There are always areas of my home which could do with a little sorting out.

Hama bead storage was high up my list. We've been buying the big tubs of mixed beads, and it was frustrating when Harry was trying to sort through to find the colours that he wanted. It also suited my organised mind have them divided out by colour. I ordered two compartment plastic organiser boxes, which had plenty of space plus some room left over for our growing collection. Sorting out the beads by colour was a bit of a mission I'll admit, but they look so much better now that they're done!

We were lucky enough to inherit a summer house when we bought our house, and it's invaluable for storing the garden toys all year round. It was getting into a bit of a mess though, as we can't resist those end of summer toy bargains. This yellow flexi trug is a really good size and keeps everything together. I'm also thinking that the children could use it in the garden in the summer as a toy in itself, by filling it with water and using it for sitting in or washing toys in.

Finally I really want to sort out our wardrobe. We are very lucky and have a walk in wardrobe, but it has become a bit of a dumping ground for all sorts of things, in particular my husband's cable collection and my handy cardboard box collection. I found these large clear plastic storage boxes which fit perfectly into the spaces on the shelves. They turned out to be a little larger than I expected and because they have a half hinged lid I think they'll also be really useful for easy access toy storage. No photos of these in use I'm afraid as I'm still halfway through this organising job, it's not a quick one!

    1. It's a bit of a faff to sort out all the beads, but I've found that it definitely makes things easier for my son when he can find the colour that he wants easily.
