Most TV cabinet designs have open shelving on the left and right, which in a bedroom you can replace with built in wardrobes. Behind your wardrobe doors you will have all the space you need for clothes, bed sheets, extra pillows and additional storage.

TV Stands for Storage

Let’s talk about kids. Did you ever notice that whenever you spend quality time watching TV with your family, kids aren’t the most patient participants in this activity. If you want to watch the show that you want, kids need to be occupied with something else. One of the best ways to entertain them while watching TV is to design a play area in the same room and you will most definitely need extra TV stands for storage.

Create open storage in your tv stands for your kids to store their toys away. Think of all those times in toy shops when your child is begging you to buy a toy. The only thing you’re thinking about in that moment is that they already have at least 5 duplicates of the same thing at home. This is because kids need to see their toys in order for them to use them.

To make sure kids can see their toys you can install open storage or baskets underneath floating TV units. Floating units are becoming more popular because they suit both large and small spaces. The fact that a floating unit is not touching the floor, it automatically makes the place look bigger.

This is where the baskets for the toys come into play. A floating unit is an amazing solution for when the kids grow out of their toys. You don’t have to rearrange your storage, you can just remove the baskets from underneath the units or repurpose them for other nick naks. Furniture that is easily convertible to suit a family’s lifestyle will be worth the investment to last a lifetime.
