Where to put it all

Every household reaches a point where the stuff outnumbers the places for the stuff. Today's edit is about containers of various kinds, and the things that end up living inside them.

Start small: the Bing XL Knutselkoffer is a craft case before it's a craft kit, which is the point. Whatever glitter and glue survive the afternoon go back in the box, not into the sofa cushions.

Same logic, different material, with SmartMax Build XXL. Seventy magnetic pieces is a lot to lose one at a time, so the set comes with its own storage box built in, which counts as a feature even if nobody markets it as the main one.

For the things too big to fit in a kit box, there's the Keter Kentwood opbergbox, 350 litres of anthracite plastic that can swallow cushions, garden toys, or whatever else has been living on a chair for the last month.

A different kind of stock-up: the Durex Surprise Me pack holds forty, which is less about running out mid-week and more about not thinking about it again for a while.

Back to kids' rooms, where the Minecraft opbergdoos does double duty as a stool, so the storage problem and the seating problem get solved by the same green box.

And for anything edible that needs to survive a commute, the 8-vak snackbox keeps fruit, nuts and whatever else separated, lidded, and not leaking into the bottom of a bag.
