Kids’ clothes storage and organization is a tough job, looking at the mess that your kid’s closet is; might take your peace away. However, there’s no need to panic, we have got you covered. You can go about storage by following 2 main steps:
- De-cluttering
- Organizing
De-clutter First!
Storage and organization go hand in hand but before reaching the step of organizing, you just need to ask yourself a few questions about the clothes that you have in front of you.
- What are the sizes that you need exactly, and which of them are for your child?
- Which of them have faded and are of no use anymore, are they of any use or just need to be thrown out?
- The outgrown clothes may be donated.
Asking these questions will make de-cluttering easy, you will be able to sort out the clothes easily, and you can take separate boxes to put away clothes according to their categories. A box for donating clothes, a box for hand-me-downs, and a box for wearable clothes, the ones that you need to organize in the closet.
Clothes Organization & Storage Ideas:
Done de-cluttering, time to organize the wearables. While organizing, you need to make sure that the clothes are easily approachable. You may need a few things like boxes, dividers, hangers, etc. to work it out in style.
Hangers:
Hanging out the clothes can do wonders in wardrobe organization. It gives uniformity to the closet which is pleasing to the eyes as well. You can hang clothes including jackets, cardigans, and coats.
Boxes Reign the Storage Ideas:
You may need a few boxes to store the clothes and label them afterward. A box containing shorts and pants maybe, another with undergarments and socks, if you have a girl child- it may be a box containing the little accessories for different dresses or a box with leggings and skirts. You can do as many boxes as you want for your ease and label them along the way.
Boxes Reign the Storage Ideas:

File Folders:
This is the most important tip that we all should use while organizing our kids’ closets. If you fold the clothes and stack them up one o the other, your kid might just pull out one pair of pants from the bottom as and the whole pile goes down. File-folding comes to the rescue here, you can fold the clothes like a file and place them one beside the other making them all handy without messing up the wardrobe.
Out-grown clothes:
The clothes that no longer fit your child also need to be discarded or reused. Donate them generously or if you have a younger kid, then they can surely use the same clothes.
