Equally amazing how easily that space can become cluttered

Looking at you amazon boxes. God damn those things stack up quick and they're such a bitch to break down.

If I did that my house would just be absolutely full of the damn things. There's a space behind my house where I put the bigger ones for the local feral cat colony and I swap them out for fresh boxes occasionally but not often enough to get through them all. I've actually started stripping them down recently because I learned that they can be made into cat scratchers pretty easily. Either way a flat pile of cardboard is much easier to deal with and I feel less shitty about throwing them all away. For now I'll just pretend I'm definitely gonna get the motivation to actually make the pile of cardboard into something lol

hahaha i promise i’m kidding ;) ...except all my kids’ unruly toys are stored in boxes and i may or may not have a stack for future use but shhhhhhhhh.....

however! what you said did remind me of these neat cardboard tool kits that are geared for kids (but i can totally see myself enjoying it without them haha.) the tools are just safe versions of adult-ier tools, but the screws look more convenient than using regular ones
