    £8.80 in Ikea (just did a quick search and there is a store in belfast)

    http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/20078031

    It's plain, so you'd be able to customise it with paint/stencils easily.

    Hope that helps :)

    There is a toy box that matches this childrens bedroom set - its a bit hard to see in this picture, its at the back.

    Price £69

    I got a wooden bedroom chest for my son's toys. I was able to get it in oak to match my other living room furniture - it's great in that it's large enough to throw all his toys into but still looks presentable enough for the living room - also it's sturdy enough to sit on as well if we have the extended family/friends around.

    We got it in Pinewick in Ballynahinch - I think it was about £100 - it was a couple of years ago, but it has been well worth it for keeping the living room tidy - it also doubles as a coffee table.

    The one in the picture on this link looks a bit like the one I have
