Our fab follower Leanne asked us for some ideas on displaying and storing Lego for her little man. We know this is a common problem (it’s up there with how to store kids artwork!) so we did some snooping around and came up with these inspired ideas.
This one provides a constantly changing artwork for the wall. Simply remove the glass from an existing frame (or maybe the kids have already done this accidentally for you!) and voila! Courtesy of 2 little superheroes.
These plain white shelves make the perfect backdrop for all the latest Lego creations to pop, as do the glossy red shelves and black boxes below.

And for storage ideas to help avoid those middle of the night foot injuries, how about this great desk design from IKEA hackers (if you love IKEA furniture be sure to check out this site for awesome ideas on modifying store bought designs);
If your little one is TOTALLY obsessed and the odd framed artwork or storage box just wont cut it, then this may be the answer to your prayers …
