If you are not sure how you are supposed to categorize that baby stuff you own properly, you’ve probably made a lot of mistakes when you were buying it. First of all, let’s make it clear that it is pretty hard to organize clothes well if you own unnecessary wardrobe pieces. A shopping mistake is an initial problem you have to solve. Don’t you know that the best way to shop for baby clothes is by going online? It works the same way as with shopping for grocery or electronics.
Online shopping allows you to monitor every sale and the variety of stuff any moment you want it. Thus, whenever you have a free minute or two, just open the Internet and search for the exact pieces you need. How does it work? Search for practical websites. One of the popular retailers, thetrendytoddler, makes it easier and faster to shop by categorizing clothes not only by the type of the wardrobe or season but by the age as well. Thus, you understand which menu exactly to check when you visit a website. It may seem to be a small thing, but it is definitely what saves a lot of time, especially for first-time parents.
Shopping wisely is about shopping online as well. Since you’ve picked the stuff you wanted to get, it’s high time to organize it properly.
How to Store Clothes
To manage the process of organizing your baby’s clothes, you are going to need a few plastic containers of different sizes. What for? Let’s have a look.
- When it comes to organizing drawers, containers are a must. They help to save space and store different wardrobe pieces in the same drawer. Get boxes and containers for baby socks, diapers, bathing suits, hats, and more. All of these can be stored in one drawer but in different containers.
- T-shirts and pants/skirts can be folded and kept in one drawer as well if they are stored in two different boxes. Organize everything by colors to make it easier to find what you need at the moment. Keeping tops and bottoms together makes it easier to match the right outfit faster. Long-sleeve shirts and T-shirts can be stored together if you don’t have enough space to divide them.
- If you have stuff that doesn’t fit any category, keep it on a hanger. Order it in sizes. Don’t mix pieces that fit your baby now with the ones that you’ve bought for the next season.
- Use mesh bags for dirty socks. Baby socks are very tiny. They tend to get lost fast. To avoid this, use special mesh bags and keep all dirty socks and hats together.
Follow these recommendations to store your baby’s wardrobe in the most effective way possible, saving both – space and time.
