A design-centric office
There’s no escape. Even once the little ones are in bed, the teddy bears still invade the sofa, haunting you with their beady eyes. Everywhere you turn, toys seem to multiply and infiltrate every room. The kitchen is full of drawings, and you’ll even need to watch your step in the bathroom. But despair not, help is on the way! Believe it or not, you can get these toys in line – read on to find out how.
Before you even start, summon up a little willpower and set out to get rid of any toys that are broken, missing pieces or looking a bit worse for wear. Be brutal! Don’t forget to carry out this task with the kids or you’ll risk some major tantrums if you’re accused of giving away or losing a favourite toy.
The hardest part is done and now all you need is a formula to get them organised. One option is to use different sized baskets, which you’ll be able to re-use around the house once the little ones have grown up. We like the idea of using baskets with a design feature to complement your home décor and add personality to the room.
A trolley is another idea that will slot in nicely anywhere in the house and helps to organise toys and move them easily from one place to another. The design looks great and has wheels, so it’s perfect for your home and for the little ones. What do you reckon?
Keep everything tidy and close to hand with our delightful shelving units with baskets. They don’t just look good, they’re practical and child-friendly too. Another option is to add low furniture units and drawers to keep all the toys neatly stashed out of sight when they’re not in use. Up to you!
We simply love the look of shelves. They’re also the perfect excuse to play around with your colour scheme in similar tones to your baskets or boxes and add a splash of colour and personality.
Books everywhere? You can never have too much shelving at home. Not only does it add style to your interiors, it also helps keep everything in its place. Don’t forget to include some lower shelves so the little ones can get to their books by themselves. They love to be independent and develop their skills.
One great way to keep the little ones entertained it to set aside an afternoon for classifying all their toys together. It’s a fun activity to do with them and at the same time helps them understand the importance of leaving everything tidy again once they’ve finished playing.
With these tips, your house will never be the same again and the kids will know where to find all their favourite treasures.
When you purchase a new furniture item, mattress, kitchen, rug or curtain, you pay an eco-participation, which is used to fund the recycling of your old items.
What is eco-participation?
Eco-participation is an additional fee added to the price of new bedding and furniture, paid by the consumer and transferred to Ecomaison.
Why?
It is used to fund the sorting, recycling, and repurposing of old mattresses and furniture.
How does it work?
Ecomaison implements collection and recycling solutions in partnership with local authorities, social economy organizations (such as the Network of Recycling Centers and Emmaus), and furniture professionals.
Since 2013, through this initiative, Ecomaison has already handled over 10 million tons of used furniture and bedding, preventing the landfill of waste equivalent to 1,000 Eiffel Towers. Previously, 55% of discarded furniture ended up in landfills. Ten years later, it's less than 3%. With 800,000 tons per year, Ecomaison is now the leading supplier of recycled wood in France.
Who is Ecomaison?
Ecomaison is a state-approved eco-organization that manages the sorting, collection, reuse, and recycling of household items and materials, from the foundations to the finishing touches. Its mission is to collect and repurpose household items and materials, giving them a second life by donating, repairing, recycling, or using them as an energy source.
