Grohanger // Kids Clothes Storage Made Easy

As I prepared for the birth of Roo I wanted to be organised with her clothing.  Starting with a chest of drawers, each drawer was labelled to hold an age group of clothing (newborn, 0-3m, etc.).  As Roo arrived and we discovered she was a girl, sleepsuits and 2-piece sets were replaced for pretty dresses and suddenly wardrobe space was required.  At first, this was easy to control as I used one colour of clothes hangers for each age group.  Before I knew it I’d ran out of a particular colour and it became a free for all.… View Post
