Anyway, today I'm tackling my youngest, Emily's, stuffed animal infestation. I can't stand it anymore. In fact, I can't stand in her room at all because, seriously, good luck finding an unoccupied piece of floor! I'm browsing Amazon this morning, searching for the perfect stuffed animal storage solution when I come across the classic stuffed animal storage hammock:
Now this isn't just any old hammock, mind you. This is the Extra Large DELUXE Pet Net. I mean, seriously, tell me that doesn't make you drool? I'm no newbie when it comes to storage and organization solutions, though. I have to question how effective that thing would really be when faced with the previously mentioned infestation. We're talking Webkinz, Beanie Babies, Shining Stars, Build-a-Bear's, and stuffed animal mutts leaking out of every orifice that bedroom has available. I'm not sure the pet net, deluxe or otherwise, is up to the challenge, so I decide to check out the handy dandy customer reviews. Right away I come across the one that I think probably sums it up best, and in such an eloquent way that I was inspired to blog about it:
"This piece of crap held about four stuffed animals before falling off the wall and dropping some out of the front. Extra large compared to what? A barbie hammock?"
Priceless.
That having been said... I'm still desperate, so still considering giving the thing a try. I swear. There's a fortune to be made in trying to figure out how we Americans can continue to over-indulge our children while still managing to cram all of that over-indulgence into a 12x12 bedroom in a neat and organized fashion. If only I had the time!
