Nursery storage

Hi all. ?I've got a little extra room in the nursery. ?In addition to a crib and glider, we've got a 12-drawer dresser (4 small, 4 large drawers). ?What else do y'all have for storage? ?Bookcase, cubes, shelves, etc.?

Thanks!?

    We have this storage/bookshelf from Ikea (I puffy heart it!) image

    plus a dresser similar to the one that you described. We also will have a changing table. 

    I have a small dresser in the closet for extras and larger clothing.

  • Because we live in an apartment, I use one closet and FI uses the closet in the nursery (formerly the office/guest room). So we have decided to hang a shelf and attach a rod of some sort under that. Then we are going to hang an organizer like the one below.  We're hoping that, in addition to a dresser, will suffice as storage.

  • We bought a toy box as baby girl already has a crap load of toys some friends gave us, I put a cushion on top to provide some additional seating. So if DH wants to sit with us while we rock or something.
  • We use a bookcase.  It does a great job holding DD's books, but it also holds some of her toys nicely.  Before she had many toys or books, we used the top shelf to keep baby meds and other assorted stuff in her room.

  • I'm going to have open shelves with baskets underneath the changing table to keep diapers, pajamas, towels, washcloths and skincare items.

    I plan on hanging a lot of the clothes in the closet and then I am going to put two sets of storage cubes on the floor in there, as well.  One side for toys, books, etc. and the other side for extra pajamas, onesies, socks, shoes, extra towels & diapers, etc.  There's also a top shelf in the closet for other random doodads.  That's all the storage I'll have in the nursery! :)

    We have a big dresser (6 large drawer and 2 small), the closet with 3 big storage boxes/baskets and 2 small ones, a side table which is where I have a bunch of teddy bears etc, and MH is making a book shelf

  • We put a closet organizer in the nursery closet.  I have everything organized in there.  Clothes/baby gear/diapers and wipes/hamper are all in there.  I have large baskets full of books on the floor (they are heavy)  I also have a few small/medium brown canvas baskets with things like baby toys, socks, bibs, etc. on the shelves. 

    We have a pop up toy storage thing (mesh sides and has a monkey on it) that I put stuffed animals in as well.  This kid has a million stuffed monkeys!
