Bigbooklittlebookcardboardbox. Who knew?
They didn’t even send us a sample. Keris loved this so much she needed to shout about it, and asked us if we’d mind.
Which we didn’t.
Of course.
“I’ve been trying to find a practical, attractive and inexpensive way of storing the children’s books for a while now. I particularly wanted a way of storing them so that the boys could look through and choose their own books, but all the upright storage units I’d seen were prohibitively expensive. And then I discovered bigbooklittlebookcardboardbox. (And I have to admit, the name really appealed. I’m such a sucker for a catchy name.)
It is, basically, exactly what it sounds like. It’s a divided cardboard box that holds more than 30 forward-facing books. The divider is off-centre so one half is for bigger books and the other for smaller.
Being a bookaholic, I got quite overexcited when it arrived. My 6-year-old Harry said, “Awww. It’s just a box!” but once I put books in it, he bagsied it for his room. Now I need another for the baby’s room.
One word of warning. On the day I got it, my cardboard-crushing husband picked it up and said, “You keeping this?” But once I’d squealed and showed him the bigbooklittlebookcardboardbox fabric tag everything was fine.
A brilliant idea, brilliantly executed. Every home should have (at least) one.
