I'm getting closer to the author's name, it's driving me crazy, right on the tip of my tongue, something like Shlesser, or something....oh well I'll keep thinking on it.
You mentioned your walls are concrete. You can put up a long 6" wide and 12ft long, 1" thick board like we did in our garage for coats etc. and then drill brass hooks in it after it's painted. You should be able to use a masonry drill and mason screws to put them up. Ask at a hardware supply store. Another thought is to check on self adhesive hooks, check again at the hardware store, some of them are quite sturdy. Actually the bags could even be in the cubicals you mentioned, since they are tied in a knot the kids still can't open them without you there to follow through. Good luck!
: Chris,
: Thanks for the welcome..I am fast becoming addicted to this site myself! :)
: As for the playroom, we've decided that there ARE too many toys...and that we're going to get rid of a lot of them. I LOVE the drawstring bag idea...I'm going to use that for sure!
: If you run across the name of the author of the book you spoke about, I'd love to know it!
: Thanks again,
: Becky
