He has a little less than I do, but we've both amassed quite awesome collections over the years. I estimate that our plushie collections combined will be something like 40-50 critters, possibly more.

Mines are allover the place

You cans look around yard sales or craigslist for book cases ans shelves. If you have the money then Look at Ikea if you have one in your area.

Ikea is awesome! There are several in the area I'm moving to, I definitely plan to make a trip there at some point. Thrift stores can also have some good things too, I forgot about that...

I just use bookshelves, the regular sort that come from Ikea or Walmart or wherever.

That's what I'm currently using in here, but I tend to use the bookshelves mainly for actual books XD A long time ago I had this gigantic desk thing that had bookshelves all the way close to the ceiling, and the top of that was the perfect place for plushies. However, I had to get rid of it because it was way too big. Maybe I can try to find something like that again.

Actually, some of them are! XD I have some Japanese UFO catcher dolls that have thread loops attached to them, which makes it easy to hang them on the wall. Most of my plushies are medium sized animals though, it would be tough to do that with. But yeah, I'm actually starting to warm up to having a toy hammock... XD

hammock! A hammock over the bed for them to POUNCE you too!
Or a hammock along the wall.

seriously.

You know, I'm warming up to the hammock idea. XD My boyfriend really seems to like this solution, and I'm starting to see the potential. Putting it over the bed is a great idea too! XD
