This project was all about turning a chaotic toy cupboard into a calm, functional space that works for a busy family home in Cambridge.
Inside my client’s large playroom cupboard, toys had been tucked away, some waiting to be relocated to her children’s newly decorated bedrooms, and others (mostly baby toys) that were just too sentimental to let go of.
My task? To help streamline, declutter and create simple systems that make daily life easier, without losing those precious memories along the way.
The process – here’s what I did:
✅ Decluttered and reorganised every item
✅ Wiped down and refreshed all shelves
✅ Grouped toys to be relocated to the little girl’s bedroom
✅ Reduced visual clutter by editing and relocating items
✅ Streamlined contents so only age-appropriate toys and games remain
Pro Tip:
📦 Use stackable storage boxes with clear labels
🧰 Edit toys regularly – especially before birthdays, post-summer holidays, and big seasonal events like Christmas
🔒 Keep those special keepsakes separate – store them in labelled memory boxes for safe keeping
The result?
A light, organised and stress-free playroom cupboard that’s easy to maintain and full of the toys my client’s children actually use and love
