I live with my boyfriend and his parents in their home. My boyfriend and I are both only children, so we each have a lot of clothes and just a bunch of stuff. We are basically confined at least our stuff is... to 3 rooms of the house. We are already out of closet space with less than half of our clothes and shoes put away. We are out of drawer space and no more room for other pieces of furniture. I have 1 zip up collapsable storage closet already and there is no room for another one. His dad is working on building a closet, but that will take months to complete. I am living out of plastic bins and it is driving me crazy. Does anyone have any ideas on storage for our stuff that will keep it out of our way, but convenient for us? Please help!!!!!!

I also live with my fiance and his parent's. I didn't have nearly as much stuff though as I only took so much with me when I moved. I still had to get rid of some things, and well those were really things I didn't wear. As for storage if you have any room under ya'll's bed there are rollable small containers that you can use. I know it's not exactly what you were looking for as your already living out of container's, but I don't know what else to tell you. Could you part with some of your clothes? Or if not, offer your bf's mom some of them.

I have gone through them once already and gotten rid of what I could. I am in the process of doing it again, but it's not getting me anywhere. Our bed sits really low to the ground, so most containers don't fit under it. If he would let me put this bed in storage and bring mine over... that would be an option... but he won't go for that, I have tried.....

My fiance and I were actually going to go for the under bed storage but our bed broke, and I think we had actually thought of that before the bed was rebuilt but after it had broke. The way it's fixed, the boxspring is in a box... that's hardly relevant to you though. I know that storage places are kind of expensive if not completely inconvenient, so the only thing I can think of to tell you is to nail the stuff to the wall, lol, i am kidding!
Good luck with that though, maybe you could convince your bf to part with his bed?
