where should i put all my junk?

[lilium]

where is everyone putting all their chests!! currently mine are all in front of my house and its kinda messy . i only have about 5 (want to get more though) so its not really that many but i don't wanna keep it all in front of my house. i thought about investing in a shed however it feels a bit like a waste of space for only 5 chests and hard to access. my house is currently only upgraded to a kitchen but if upgrading is my best bet ill do it. (i just wanna keep everything quite tidy)

1x big shed for storage, is usually mandatory. The more you progress, the more chests are so going to keep appearing and other than that, you can put other stuff inside the same shed, too!

I have one with 17x big chests and various other rows of machinery

I was just thinking of this earlier today. My farm is still quite small, but I'm expanding, and I already have a dozen chests. Most outside but even a few in my house! I gotta build a shed to store them in. Cause I know im gonna have more chests coming soon

Honestly, I do the same thing, but I try to keep it so organized that I in no way possible can mess it up.

Mine matches this.

I played my first 3 long saves with a double row of Chests outside but it makes a mess of exterior design, even when you hide them behind buildings. But now I put them in a Shed with the most-used machines, which gets upgraded to a Big Shed later if I want more processing. It's clean and easy and gives you something else to decorate!

I scatter several of my chests around the valley. I keep one in the mines top room, and I decorate the bajeezuz out of it, pretty much turning it into a smeltery (that's a word now). Keep another near willy, and a few scattered into barns and sheds and the farmhouse here and there. I know some people will keep chests in people's houses and put a stash of gifts in there for them.

I always keep chests within my house, I'm not a huge decorator but even if you are they can slot in quite nicely as a little section in one part or around the main 'living room' of the house.

In the early game though my chests always fill the area in front of my house and greenhouse (which I pop right next to it), with a couple around the valley like LRangerL has, such as in the entrance to the mines, some fishing spots, and on the island
