They come with a lot of stuff – toys, evolving wardrobes, and do I dare even mention the Squishmallows. And in a bedroom, storage is almost always the missing piece. That’s why I love finding ways to maximize space while keeping the room looking elevated and organized.
Up until about a month ago, my two girls (ages 5 and 11) were sharing a room. With my oldest starting junior high and wanting her own space, we recently moved her down to what was our guest bedroom. But when they were together, maximizing storage was even more critical. They shared one small closet and we were always looking for extra space for clothes.
When I shared a reel last week with some of my favorite under-the-bed storage options, I was quickly reminded how common this struggle is. So today I’m rounding up my top picks for kids’ beds with built-in storage plus my favorite under-the-bed storage options if you already have a bed you love.
And… this is also our very first blog post on the new website. Surprise!

What If the Bed Doesn’t Have Storage?
Sometimes the bed you fall in love with doesn’t come with drawers—and that’s okay. That’s where under-the-bed storage comes in. These are some of my favorites:
Design Tip
Keep your storage under each bed consistent. Whether you choose all baskets, all drawers or bins matching styles makes the space look elevated and intentional.
One More Thing…
Beds with storage (or under-bed solutions) aren’t just about squeezing in more stuff. They’re about creating breathing room in a space that should feel restful. And when the clutter is out of sight, everyone really does sleep a little better!
This is the first of many posts I’ll be sharing here, so if you’re always looking for ways to blend design and organization, you’re in the right spot! xo
