Everything in it's Place =More Creativity

For a number of years, we've been storing the massive number of Legos that Jackson and Jeremiah own, in large, plain plastic bins. This has made for many frustrated moments when one of the boys were trying to locate a specific piece to complete a Lego project...and then finally just giving up.

While we were in Utah, we stopped off at IKEA and found some awesome storage boxes that Jackson & Jeremiah felt would be perfect Lego storage. They were right!
We bought 16 of these terrific plastic boxes with removable/moveable dividers.

Yesterday I spent most of the day digging through one of their large, deep bins for thousands of tiny Legos, and placing them in their new storage boxes.

Jackson & Jeremiah could not be any happier! They keep hugging me and telling me how much they appreciate me doing this for them, and how much more they enjoy building with their Legos now. I did it with love for my boys because I know how long they've been frustrated with their Lego storage. I'm just so pleased that they really do like the way it all turned out.

Some pics of some of the storage boxes.





Already lots of great Lego projects strewn about on the coffee table.
Some new projects created today! (Doesn't Jackson look like Frodo Baggins??!!)
