Lego organiser

Liem really loves Lego and we have an absolute fortune in Lego in the house! In terms of replay value though, Lego is so worth it. It was also getting to be a nightmare trying to find bits that we (ahem, I mean he) wanted for making new things. So we set about organising the Lego.

Being the anal type, we first separated them into colours and put them in whatever container we could find including buckets, shoe boxes, a helmet, an aircraft carrier, an octopus and a pumpkin lantern. Once we knew what we had, we went out and bought some plastic drawers and some containers that fit into the drawers for the colours that we only had a few pieces of. Tada! Much easier now to find things....although there have been comments like, "Mum! Who put the blue pants in the blue drawer?"
