Need your nursery ideas on storing stuffed animals

DS LOVES all of his stuffed animals and plays with them constantly.  Before each nap we line them up facing his crib and say "night night".  

I need a good idea on how to get them off the floor (nursery is pretty small) but keep them within his reach.  I thought of some type of hammock type thing, but that sounds kind of ugly.

Any ideas?

Growing up, I had a big wicker basket for all my stuffed animals.  Easy to get him to help you clean up that way, too, since kids usually love tossing things into baskets/boxes.

We have one of these:

It's not very attractive on its own, but with all the animals on t you can't really see it.

We've been thinking about getting wire plant baskets like this and spray painting them to match the room. They can be hung low so your kid can help put things away:

pennysuedog:

I second this idea. I've seen similar ideas on Pinterest, maybe even a little smaller/thinner. Look up "stuffed animals zoo" on pinterest or Google Images.

Right now we put ours in a plastic bin.

This wouldn't work until LOs are older (taller) but when I was growing up my parents nailed a mesh laundry bag to the inside wall of my closet. I could see through it to the ones I wanted, and we could close the door t hide them.

This is a good simple solution for now.  I'm also a hide things/put them out of sight type anyway.
