What to use for a tickle trunk??

in Success after IF

So...I decided to get Penny some dress up clothes for her birthday present.  I got her a couple of headbands with flowers on them, a tutu, some cute shoes, a magic wand, and a couple of pairs of sunglasses for dress up.  I got it all on clearance!  Wohoo!

I figure I will add to it with wigs/hats/costumes over time.

I want to put it all into a "tickle trunk".  (Mr. Dress-Up's costume box).  Any thoughts on what I could buy to use for that?  I would like something with a lid...There is super ugly princess toy chests at TRU for cheap but I don't want one of those in my living room:)

There is a wicker blanket chest at IKEA but I'm not sure about the wicker catching on her dress up things?  And it's a little on the pricey side I think.

    Would one of those storage cube/ottomans be too small? I think target has cloth and leather ones.

    I could check at Home Sense for one.  We don't have Target here...yet.  It's coming!  Wohooo!!  I may never have to step foot in a Wal-mart again.  Yayyyyyy!

    I don't have any suggestions for the trunk, but I wanted to let you know that my SIL bought dress up clothes for my niece last Christmas. She bought a ton of costumes on clearance after Halloween..got them for dirt cheap.

    Yeah, that is a brilliant idea!

    I think you need a super hero cape for sure...

    What about this from IKEA?

    We have a storage ottoman coffee table (one of rectangular ones, not square), and it works perfectly!  It fits a TON of stuff, actually. 

    Also, IKEA sells this red canvas treasure chest thing -- it is really cute, with a "lock" that velcros on.  It was great, but not really durable with the babies.
