Stylish Personalized Storage for Toys & More

Toys, toys, toys. We have a lot in our home. Most are dolls with all the super small accessories, puzzles of all sizes and princess dress-up clothing. I am constantly working to keep it all organized. Therefore, we have a house rule that if something comes in, something must go out and be donated. It helps keep the volume down, but I am always looking for stylish ways to store and organize all those little Calico Critters, purple ponies and glittered tiaras.


The MacBeth Collection to the rescue! This darling custom home and accessories line fuses functional home storage and organization with high-design. "The products are not just about storage – they are an extension of how we want to display ourselves and our homes to the world," says Margaret Josephs, Founder and Owner of MacBeth Collection. And it's so simple too - just pick your product, design (over 200 patterns), and add an cute icon or monogram for a one-of-a-kind look to compliment your decor.

Here are my recommendations to a client for her little girl's blue & pink bedroom (I had so much fun pulling this all together!):


So cute! Love the pail for storing crayons or other art supplies. A series of bins would be great for organizing dress-up clothing and accessories. The large oval tub would be perfect way to show off all those stuff animals neatly.

Lovely. Here are several patterns that would look great in a little girl's blue & pink bedroom. I'm curious to find out which one my client will like best. My favorites are the Blue & White Harlequin (middle top) and Chain Link Pool (bottom left) designs.



I love how the MacBeth Collection offers monogram and icon options. Such a great way to further personalize one's space. I am going to recommend that my client monograms her daughter's storage accessories, but any of the four icons above would work stylishly too. Isn't that seahorse darling?

Who says home storage can't express your personal style!

  2. Great find! And I see absolutely no reason why these have to be limited to a kid's room -- I could definitely use some of these in my study and pantry!

  5. I agree. It's a great idea, and should not be limited to a kid's room. It's about expressing yourself, using what you already have. Looking forward to seeing this collection incorporated in even more settings.

  6. I completely agree with Nicolette and Averill -these storage tins should not be limited to kid's rooms and could be used in almost any room of the house. In the post I simply focused on storage for a client's little girl's room.

  7. Great ideas! I love the paisley patterned bucket. Do you have ideas for boys' rooms too? We're slowing disappearing under a sea of trucks, dinosaurs and trains...
