I want to see how you set up your collections!!!
« on: April 22, 2012, 11:40:57 AM »
Just as the title says. In my apartment, my collection setup is feeling a little stale. How do you guys store/organize/display your stuff?

I have a really modest collection of ponies, so this isn't a request JUST for pony rooms. (Although I've been known to google image search those as they are fun to swoon over. Hehe)

So how about it everyone...what's your collection setup like? I need to steal ideas :D

I just keep my meager collection on a windowsill with a Rambo special edition DVD to show off my blindbags.

I have the shelves on the 'desk' for me and my fiance's computer... it's rather.. messy to say the least, but the layout of our room sucks for adding more bookcases to add room. I should probably take a new picture at some point.. hm...

I use clear vinyl storage cubes. (Hubby decided to store his nerf weapons next to it). This is on the wall facing my bed, so I always see my ponies! (Hubby says they watch him while he sleeps... hence the need for the nerf weapons I guess.)


I used to have risers in the cubes so the ponies were displayed better, but after the last move I recycled them and haven't felt like making them again (out of cardboard priority mail boxes).

Most of mine are put away for storage.... so picture clear plastic tubs with white lids, and piles of colour inside ;)

I have a few on my bookshelf here, and some still at my parents.

My house is tiny (it's a converted 1-car garage, thats one small car lol) so I don't have my pony room yet :( My collection is pretty much spread out over the house as I don't have any storage either, apart from under my bed and that's full of g3s and playsets!!!


I like to call it organised chaos :lmao:

So, on the stairs we have...G3, G2 and Dollymix. And all my books!

Shelving! Build up! 

Always key in a small space.

I am using these floating shelves from ikea and container store.

Those are my ponies, dolls, and a few other random toys. Please excuse the cat, desk mess, and saddle, lol.

My shelves are also tiered, but it's hard to show in photos how all the ponies are visible.


This is part of my Posey conga! One of my favorite parts of my collection :)
