Kids grow so fast! All that growing means lots and lots and lots of clothes. I have bins and bins of baby clothes waiting for Baby #2, and it’s honestly a bit overwhelming. So, I’ve done some research and have found some great posts about not only storing clothes, but organizing clothes still in use. I thought it would be nice to share all these great posts with you too!

Baby Closet Dividers: Blissfully Domestic – It seems like you need to have all different sizes of baby clothes ready due to how fast those little guys grow. Have you also noticed how baby clothes sizing is not standardized, so the same baby wearing a 6-9 month onsie can also fit into another brand’s 0-3 month size? I found that organizing the onsies are essential! I love these super cute closet dividers just for baby clothes! Go see how she made them!
Storing Children’s Clothes
I know I can’t be the only one with bins and bins of infant and children’s clothing. They are either waiting for a younger sibling to grow into them, waiting to sell/give away to another child, or just kept for sentimental reasons.

I am pretty good at keeping clothes organized but less good at weeding through the stuff we no longer need. What a great idea to organize the clothes so kids can dress themselves. That's what we're aiming for!
