OUT OF THE WORLD

Treat your pocket rocket to a storage solution that is both space inspired and space saving!

Kids will love having this rocket-style shelf in their room and at night will shoot off to sleep dreaming of being in their very own spaceship on a thrilling, intergalactic adventure! Plus, it's a starry spot to store your kid's books, toys, and games.

“ SHOOT FOR THE STARS You can make one shelving unit to set up in the corner of your kid’s room, or double up and join two units together for setting up on a flat wall, as here. Or, go ahead and do both. The sky's the limit after all!
