For those who have small children, arranging the baby's room can be a challenge and an interesting experience. As is already known, at the beginning, babies need many things. But a closet where you can put everything they need is very important. When it comes to making room for a new member of the family, you will make your life much easier if you organize the baby's closet, before it is born.
The longer you wait to prepare the baby's room with all the necessary things, the more difficult it might be when you bring your baby home from the hospital. And when it comes to preparing the baby's wardrobe, you will have to make sure that you have all the necessary items at hand. And yet there is no need to buy everything that exists in specialty stores. On the contrary, you should make a plan and invest only in what is really necessary - a wardrobe (or cabinet) with drawers . This is extremely useful, even if you don't have much space at your disposal.
The first step is to choose a suitable wardrobe
Color is important, but size is much more important. The closet must be roomy enough so that the baby's clothes can be organized efficiently. Choosing the color of the wardrobe is not a difficult task. In general, it is done depending on the gender of the child, but also on the parents' preferences. Both for boys and girls, you can choose shades of beige, cream. They will create a soothing atmosphere in the newborn's room.
What should a wardrobe for babies contain to be functional?
First of all, if possible, it would be good to store the swimwear (pyjamas, bodysuits, etc.) in a separate drawer. It is easier to place them on the shelves at the bottom of the closet. Seasonal clothes (shorts, sleeveless t-shirts) will sit in separate rows. The easiest is to put the clothes according to the labels and then group them by size.
If you have a closet with many drawers, use them for the newborn's clothes. Thus, you will save space in the room and at the same time you will have access to what clothes the baby frequently needs: diapers, bodysuits or even the baby's favorite toys. The most important thing is to have everything you need at hand. This means both clothes, cosmetics, toys and other things that you use on a daily basis. We recommend that you keep the clothes in an orderly manner, with the label visible. In a wardrobe for babies we must put:
- Bed linen;
- Towels;
- Toys;
- Clothes;
- Care products (pampers, cream, soap, lotion, etc.).
Tips to keep in mind
- Choose a wardrobe that matches the rest of the room decor;
- The wardrobe must have the strength to support the weight of the clothes, so that they do not fall;
- More drawers - These optimize the storage space, and the clothes are easier to keep in the correct order. The cabinet with 5 drawers can be a good choice, to provide a better organization and ordering of the baby's things.
- We recommend a wardrobe and chest of drawers with drawers for all the baby's things. It will be easier to separate the clothes from other things necessary for the care of the little one.
Although they are small, babies' clothes should be comfortable. Separate the clothes for the house from those for walking or even the elegant ones (for church, events, trips, etc.). Thus, it will be easier for you to find the right clothes every time.
Moms love to have babies dressed in fashion, but for this good organization is the key. If you don't have a space that allows you to have a wardrobe, you can choose the 3-drawer chest of drawers option (many of them even have a changing table, so you will use the space very efficiently).
Sometimes, less is more. That's why it doesn't unnecessarily crowd the child's room, but make sure you have furniture that helps you and doesn't confuse you.
