How to organize your dressing room as the season changes?
September 10, 2021
Baby is growing so fast! He is gaining centimeters from week to week and his wardrobe must be constantly renewed. Baby’s onesies, socks and pajamas are piling up and closets and drawers are filling up fast. It’s hard to find your way around, so it’s time to think about how you’re going to separate or store your baby’s outgrown clothes to avoid feeling overwhelmed by the accumulation of stuff. Sorting out your baby’s things is a necessary step if you don’t want to find yourself quickly overwhelmed by a pile of too small clothes overflowing from the drawers and preventing you from seeing clearly when you dress him. In this article, I propose a solution to organize your baby’s small things and present you the vacuum storage system, very easy to set up.
Why do you want to keep baby’s clothes too small?
- Perhaps you are planning to have another child in the near future?
- Do you want to preserve memories of your child’s childhood and find them a few years later?
- Are you waiting to sell them to individuals and/or give them to relatives or associations?
But how do you go about storing baby’s clothes so they don’t pile up in drawers? We’ll start by mentioning two essential steps when it comes to storing baby’s things:
1. Wash baby’s things before storing them
The cleaning operation is crucial because it allows you to avoid mould on the textile and to avoid bad surprises when you will find your baby’s things some time later. It is also easier to remove a garment when the stain is recent. Don’t bother with ironing because in any case you will have to do it when you take the clothes out again.
2. Sort your baby’s clothes for better orientation
You can sort them by size (birth, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months, 18 months…). When you plan to have another child, this option is really practical because you will easily find the size you will need when your child is born and it will avoid you to take out everything unnecessarily. I highly recommend that you organize your storage this way because it is the most practical and efficient. You can also decide to sort things by age and season if you really have a lot of stuff.
Now, let’s take a look at how you will store your baby’s outgrown clothes. As a mom, I also found myself in this situation one day and I had to quickly find a solution in order not to be overwhelmed by my daughter’s pile of undersized clothes. Since I didn’t want to separate myself from all her things, but rather to sort them out before storing some of them, I chose a solution that I highly recommend and that works very well when it comes to storing clothes, even in large quantities.
STORE CLOTHES IN A VACUUM STORAGE BOX
How does it work?
The vacuum storage box has a compression bag directly integrated inside. The vacuum bag is equipped with a valve that allows the air contained in the textile fibers to be expelled. Simply use a vacuum cleaner and in less than a minute, the vacuum bag compresses to one third of its original size!
This is an ideal solution for freeing up space in closets and drawers, sorting through clothes and making storage easier.
