You're not doing it right until every cupboard, wardrobe, spare corner in the garage, loft and room has been filled with an assortment of toy errrr collectibles. You know if you pull the panel off the bath you have a space that no one checks?

Great collection. It doesn't matter how it's stored or displayed - just that whatever you have works for you and you get to enjoy it from time to time. All collectors live with an element of boxing / stored items, unless you have a mansion.

We don't live in a mansion but I certainly don't leave anything packed away, which is why there are toys in almost every room.

Great to see another collection, thanks for sharing!
Don't worry, I feel your pain, I had my collection stored in the loft at my sister's house for a couple of years.
Now I have a small room to display some of it in but my attic is packed full of the rest.

Being banished to the loft isn't such a bad thing.
Weekly I find myself having to search out some baby clothes or equipment, or find 'that bit of wood for the kitchen'
My wife leaves me to it, on my return she asks if I've been having little battles and I assure her that my intricate organisation system requires through searching for the household item she requests.
And all that plastic provides excellent loft insulation, saving literally pence a year in heating bills

Excellent stuff!
You know, it just reminded me that I actually have no idea what I own in my collection. It's been boxed up in the loft so long I have only vague notions of what it up there!! I really should go and re-discover some gems of a by gone era!!
