We never use our bathtub since we have a stand up shower in our ensuite. I turned our bathtub into a storage closet over a year ago and am so glad I did. It's great for storing extra toilet paper and tissues and other bulky items that are hard to store.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-36861231604340147002014-07-31T08:43:14.813-05:002014-07-31T08:43:14.813-05:00These are all great ideas!

In one drawer we store cloth diapers/wipes/underwear, another has daughter 1's clothes, and the final drawer has daughter 2's clothes.<br /><br />The daybed doubles as a big girl bed for daughter 1 and/or a guest bed when needed. <br /><br />We're considering a BRIMNES daybed for the TBD room to increase the storage and guest options.<br /><br />In addition to excellent storage help, my in-laws (who both have Parkinson's) absolutely love them!

All your ideas are spot on! I have figured out all kinds of ways to make it work. I had the stove taken out of my kitchen so I could bring in a portable washer/dryer that works out of one unit.
