The girls really enjoy sharing a room which means we have extra space for a dedicated playroom. I&#8217;ve recently gotten requests to share some kids&#8217; playroom ideas so today I&#8217;m sharing how we organize our playroom, why it works for us, and some additional ideas that can work in any space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of each child having their own bedrooms, the girls share a room, and we use our spare bedroom as the girls&#8217; playroom. We had a similar setup in our old house but I prefer it even more in this house because it keeps all of the toys out of our living room. On occasion the girls will bring a few toys down to play in the living room or a project to work on at the table but overall, they keep their stuff in the playroom. This makes cleaning up much easier and keeps our downstairs looking presentable most of the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-table-of-contents uagb-toc__align-left uagb-toc__columns-1  uagb-block-bc6a2eaa     \"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-scroll= \"1\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-offset= \"30\"\n\t\t\t\t\tstyle=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uagb-toc__wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uagb-toc__title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTable Of Contents\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uagb-toc__list-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<ol class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><a href=\"#kids-budget-friendly-playroom-ideas\" class=\"uagb-toc-link__trigger\">Kids Budget Friendly Playroom Ideas<\/a><ul class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><a href=\"#budget-friendly-playroom-shelving-and-storage\" class=\"uagb-toc-link__trigger\">Budget-friendly playroom shelving and storage<\/a><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><a href=\"#using-baskets-and-bins-to-organize-toys\" class=\"uagb-toc-link__trigger\">Using Baskets and Bins to organize toys<\/a><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><a href=\"#label-everything\" class=\"uagb-toc-link__trigger\">Label Everything<\/a><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><a href=\"#keep-like-items-together\" class=\"uagb-toc-link__trigger\">Keep like items together<\/a><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><a href=\"#organizing-art-supplies\" class=\"uagb-toc-link__trigger\">Organizing art supplies<\/a><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><a href=\"#an-affordable-art-display\" class=\"uagb-toc-link__trigger\">An affordable art display<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class=\"uagb-toc__list\"><a href=\"#in-conclusion\" class=\"uagb-toc-link__trigger\">In Conclusion<\/a><\/ul><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kids Budget Friendly Playroom Ideas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Girls-Playroom-2-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Organized Kids Playroom Ideas - organize everything in baskets and bins on a shelf or cubby system for a simple and affordable solution.\" class=\"wp-image-13726\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Girls-Playroom-2-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Girls-Playroom-2-467x700.jpg 467w, https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Girls-Playroom-2-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Girls-Playroom-2-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Girls-Playroom-2.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Budget-friendly playroom shelving and storage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p> Let&#8217;s get into those playroom organization ideas. For this space, I knew I wanted a large bookshelf with baskets storage. I found this option of organizing toys to be very affordable and stylish. I love the unfinished wood look but it can also easily be painted. This particular bookshelf is very customizable so you can buy different pieces to fit your organizational needs. We purchased just two sections of the IVAR shelving to create this custom playroom shelving. It&#8217;s an affordable piece of shelving that was fairly easy to put together. We could have easily fit one more section on this wall and if we need more space in the future I may add another section. I also love using these <a href=\"https:\/\/rstyle.me\/+3emr97PRsNnGogTp-JRkSw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">eight cubby storage organizers<\/a> like what I&#8217;ve used for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/toy-organization-without-a-playroom\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"6043\">living room toy storage<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>For your convenience, this post may contain affiliate links.

I love this system because it can be utilized in any space. <em>You definitely do not need a dedicated room to have an organized play space<\/em>. You can throw up these shelves in a corner of your living room, a wide hallway, or in your kid&#8217;s bedroom and have a successfully organized situation for toys. We did something similar in a previous home &#8211; see our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/toy-organization-without-a-playroom\/\">living room toy organization here<\/a>. One thing you&#8217;ll notice that we don&#8217;t have out in the open is larger play items such as a dollhouse or play kitchen. We had a play diner before we moved and it didn&#8217;t make it here. With Millie already at 4, we opted not to get another one. We do however have a few playhouses that the girls adore. We store those in the closet. Since this is technically a bedroom it has a sliding <a href=\"https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/closet-door-alternatives-and-ideas\/\">door closet<\/a>. We keep their Barbie Malibu house on one side and their Peppa Pig house on the other. When it&#8217;s just one of them playing, they usually just leave the doors open to the closet and sit there comfortably and play. When they both want to play or have friends over they typically bring the house to the rug for more space. This works well for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;d love to hear from you in the comments &#8211; what are some ways you keep your kids&#8217; toys and things wrangled?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Save this idea for later by pinning the image below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"709\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kids-playroom-organization-ideas-709x1024.png\" alt=\"Kids Playroom Ideas - How to organize toys and other playroom supplies\" class=\"wp-image-13741\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kids-playroom-organization-ideas-709x1024.png 709w, https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kids-playroom-organization-ideas-485x700.png 485w, https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kids-playroom-organization-ideas-768x1109.png 768w, https:\/\/www.makinghomebase.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/kids-playroom-organization-ideas.png 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 100vw, 709px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;ve been fortunate enough to have a playroom basically since Millie grew out of her crib.
