Adds Sarah: ‘A couple of people have asked how I put them on the wall. I super glued the drawer dividers together. And then simply put a few screws into them onto the wall.’

Sarah’s post attracted nearly 3,000 likes!

‘Now that’s clever thinking! Sure beats that $300 original one! Thankyou for the idea on how to store my son’s cars.’

This is so clever. Practical and looks fantastic too. I don’t have the creativity gene but this is awesome.

Great storage but unless it is up out of reach the nest thing is to teach the kids to put the toys back in their shelves after playing with them

I like the idea. And the wood brings surely some warmth into the room.
