An Organized Dresser

Sweetie Pie has a lot of clothes,  and they get all messed up in her dresser drawers when she digs through them to find something to wear.  I've been looking for a better way to organizer her clothes in her drawers.

Becky over at Organizing Made Fun has found a great way to fit more clothes in your dresser drawers AND make it easy to see what clothes you have.


So I decided to put her folding/stacking idea to work.

Here is Sweetie Pie's pants drawer BEFORE:


Her pants used to be folded in half.
So I just folded them in half one more to make them folded into quarters.

Now her pants drawer looks like this:

I could see each one of her pants and folding them like this even left me with some room to spare.
So I moved onto her long sleeve shirt drawer.

And her short sleeve shirt drawer BEFORE:

And yes, I did try to coordinate colors by putting all the pink shirts together and so on.
Organization like this makes me happy.

  1. Organization like that makes me happy too. I'm so grateful that at least one, maybe two of my children seem to have inherited these tendencies as well. Those drawers look really nice! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that they stay that way for awhile!

  2. I do the above as well, but in addition, I fold matching pants into the shirt. I keep a drawer of single pants, shirts, sweaters and a drawer of matched (even if they were not store bought matches, but coordinated pieces of singles that I put together) sets. This makes it easier on my two year-old (and my husband) when trying to figure out what to wear.
