thanks for the suggestion Christy - i'm just not sure about folding stuff and still keeping it together kwim? DH is a shocker at matching stuff, which would drive me insane!
I fold alot of MAckenzie's skirts and pants over hangers - well more the pants. ALso I don't worry too much about keeping them as groups - they end up being worn in all sorts of combinations!
So is mine!! When they are under 1, I generally fold them together, so they are matching. I had a box for socks and a box for hats and a box for singlets and then matching cool weather and matching warm weather... I tried to make it easy for DH, but even then Jovie would have blue socks, purple singlet, and he would somehow undo the matching set and have red pants and a pink top we call them Daddy dress ups here....
DH has just reminded me we have a tallboy that we never put together under our bed, which would probably fit in the bottom of the wardrobe to store some things in - will have to have a look at reject shop for the hangers too. i went to ikea site and had a look at the drawer dividers in the catalogue (went looking for the hanging thing first, but got side tracked) - might have to get some of them for our drawers - to seperate singlets, jumpsuits sleep suits... and of course, if i do that, and then put outfits in the divided bits, he can't REALLY mess up too bad can he....?
either that, or maybe i should just give up on the idea of DH getting her clothes for her...
some of the newer skirt hangers (adult) are fairly slimline and the clips move along the rail. I bought a heap and still use them for Darcy's stuff - just move the clips out a bit as she 'graduates' sizes.
They are fine enough that they don't look out of place with her pink plastic hangers.
I have seen some wooden kids hangers with a bar at BigW I think....but I reckon they'd be pretty exxie.
