It never fails. Every time my daughter and I set out to really clean her room, it ends in one of two things:
- I want to give away half (or more than half) of her toys because there are just too many, or
- I end up frantically searching for better ways to store and organize all her stuff
Since we gave away a lot of her toys when we moved back to Georgia from Tennessee, the second outcome won this time. For the sake of my sanity, I really need to find a good, kid-friendly storage solution. I don’t know if this is the perfect solution for us, but Green Lullaby’s eco-friendly storage furniture is good enough to share nonetheless.
Their MultiBox (found via Inhabitots) is a combination of a storage unit, a chair and an educational block. The fully recyclable box is made of recycled cardboard, and it’s covered in a fire retardant solution that is supposed to be non-toxic. I’m going to have to do some research on that one, but that’s a great feature in theory. Some other great featured? The box is water-resistant and the surface can be cleaned easily with a wet wipe.
If you’re intrigued by the MultiBox, you’ll want to see the rest of Green Lullaby’s products, including a bench/table, a baby cradle (yes, a cradle made of cardboard) and a dollhouse.
Why It’s Green:
- Made of recycled cardboard and recyclable
- Finished with non-toxic, water-based paints, adhesives and fire retardant
Price: $59.99 for a set of 3 MultiBoxes at Olive & Bean
