Maybe don't plan on getting rid of those legos in only 10 years!! ;)<br /><br />As a result of his lego obsessions (and he's going to Denmark ... the birthplace of Legos), my mom invested in two or three plastic storage 3-drawer sets. They've organized the legos by color ... with each getting its own drawer, and she's kept the instructions in a binder just for legos. But as I said, severe obsession is the cause!Marsh Mayhemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05536460905431471758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7422569741317391683.post-75760931324125042992010-05-14T14:23:55.043-06:002010-05-14T14:23:55.043-06:00Rachelle, we do not keep them organized at all, as...Rachelle, we do not keep them organized at all, as you can probably see in the photos. We do keep the instructions, so they can build something again, assuming they can find the parts in all of the chaos, but usually after they've built it once they just create their own variations, using pieces from mixed sets. I know Ginny still has her boys' legos all separated and still in the original boxes. That's probably the ideal system, but if we still had all our original boxes it'd take up half the basement. We use their train table and just put all the pieces in the drawers. I'm sure you'll much more organized than I am! :)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11371564081167103606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7422569741317391683.post-10195445014895997272010-05-14T14:08:06.154-06:002010-05-14T14:08:06.154-06:00Hey Michelle, I would love to know how you do or d...Hey Michelle, I would love to know how you do or don't have these organized? Since I am "just starting" with the bigger lego sets, do I keep them separated by sets or just throw them all together?Rachellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11073341414330153693noreply@blogger.com
