Sounds like the questions in your title are getting some answers.

I'm totally in favour of furniture as storage by the way, when it comes to space. Chests (I know you can get the ones I'm thinking of at IKEA) make good seats when there's cushions overtop.

Have a look at the Ikea catalogue and tell us exactly what you need .

Well... I don't know what you have, what you need etc etc. I have family in your area, and put the word out to keep their eye out for any furniture that is being given away or unneeded... and ummm we might be able to fill that freezer up for you too .

wow !!

someone told me today dont be too proud, so im gonna tell ya how it is *deep breath*
here it is

ya know pantry cupboards (food cupboards) with shelves thats what furniture we need, because with josiah having to move into the boys room 2 already in there there stuff needs better packing, currently there is a whole lot of boxes/containers on floor and 2 large falling apart polyester styled covered pole thing wardrobe.They are bent and twisted and we have sorta propped them up the best we can do. (they cover dd's bedroom door as there is two acess points so they boys cant see through the glass at her.)

One is filled with ds4's toys but filled like in cardboard boxes pilled up as the hanger that we had in there that was ment to be for clothes has became a bit munted but we needed it to house toys. The other polyester wardrobe thing has ds4 clothes hanging up in it i a scored a few months back at a garage sale a 3 dollar bathroom free standing towel rack. On that is ds4's pants hung up. hanging under neath his jumpers inside the wardrobe type thing the zippers are broken on this cupboard. They were bought for about 30 dollars reduced at k mart about 1 year ago and fell apart within months as they have fine metal poles all connecting and arnt very strong. Done the job for sort term but bad investment of our money. There is two small sets of draws that d4 puts his tops and shorts and undies in 1 draw the tracks are broken on and DS8 has a chest of draws but its missing some handles as its broken off.

So josiah will have to go into this room too when bub is born i have a bed for him when the time comes if eh goes straight to a real bed at 19 months but cant see this happening at that age.. Currently josiah has two hanging shelves in the cupboard thats fixed to the wall in his room unfortunately that means on house inspections all his items are open for viewing. We have a desk that we have sorta made into a change table with nappys on it and a small book case carefully placed on desk to have his nappies. (this is all in the sun room that he cant sleep in due to damp and drafts)

Before i had even wrote this thread i had always had thoughts on space saving ideas for them (Cheapest way possible) and hiding the items away neatly... i thought it would be best and cheapest to get at least 4 double doored cupboards (pantry style) to put toys and clothes folded up in and on the shelves that way it will look tidy and un cluttered so hopefully when i tell realestate im pregnant with number 5 they wont think that we have to much stuff and cant keep the rooms tidy with 3 boys in 1 room. Ds4 has 3 polystyrene esky type rectangular boxes put together like a small book case for his bits to nextt o his bed, there is also a broken Toy Box in the room.

Would be happy to send you a pic or two princess. let me know you email addy in a pm
