Nursery Organising Post #1

Utilizing your wardrobe storage properly is really important in a nursery we are lucky enough to have big wardrobe and so lots of space in the wardrobes, a lot of the tips I am running through today are also appropriate if you only have a small robe as well as utilizing the very top and bottom of the space will give you more room. We have not had these built in yet and so I have done some additional things in the nursery to use all of this space.

This is one of the sides of the robe. Matching hangers helps give a wardrobe unity and I also think that hanging sets of things together like pants/ long sleeved tops together also creates a neat look. Extra storage boxes at the top of the wardrobe are great for holding bits and pieces you don’ t use all of the time. I also have a few large clear storage tubs on the floor of the robe.

This is one of the 3 doors of Flynn’s wardrobe. As we don’t have built in’s done in the robe yet I have had to buy additional Ikea storage to be able to use the space effectively. I bought the large white boxes  and then labelled them according to what storage I needed in there for example- nappies, pram accessories (like rain covers etc), wipes.

For extra hanging space I bought the large white hangers from Ikea for Linen storage in the nursery. I have linen, blankets, wraps, slings/feeding covers, towels, quilts etc. It has been a great way to have easy access to everything over the last few years and especially now that we are having a second child all of the linen is there ready to go (once washed).

And here are a few more larger photo’s of his room as this was the most  requested thing wanted by everyone in the Q and A post I did a few weeks ago. This is the left hand wall as you walk into the room.

Flynn’s bookcase, this is great storage for gifts, teddies, books etc.

    Hey Jade.

    Another question. How do you clean Flynn’s room? We have two asthmatic’s who share a room, and one has a dustmite allergy.
    How do you keep on top of dust etc All the little teddies, and knick knacks etc

    Thanks

    Thanks Jen, I love the Boori furniture it is such great quality : ) Paulette- mmm to be honest I am not really a “cleaner” LOL I only do what I have to, that must be really tough for you!! I would keep knick knacks to an absolute minimum in that situation and baby wipes are your friend, I use them for wiping down heaps of stuff !!

    Odd question – where did you get those hangers? I’ve been looking for some like that for ages.
