Clothes EVERYWHERE!

[SillyGigglyGirls]

Honestly, I dont know what to do anymore.
We have like very limited closet space. Two
bedroom house/ one floor. I have some clothes in the back closet near the doorway (suppose to be for shoes-I just put in a tubberware container). A pile in the girl's room, a ton on my dresser in our bedroom. Stuffed by some in our closet. Help!! I am drowning in clothes. I got rid of some, just recently because I had to go through everything. What can I do to get it all in the drawers? They are filled to capacity. We are expecting a captian's bed with drawers and we are going to get another dresser. But other than that, I feel very overwhelmed, I have to sort this stuff away. Like TODAY.

Oh, and I have a laundry basket in the living room waiting for me to put away the clean clothes...

I don't have any suggestions for you, just hugs cuz I am going though the same things. DD is outgrowing so much and she is only a year.
Tell me it gets better some day!

Do you have an attic or basement for storage? I separate my kids clothes by season (summer/winter) and store them in big Rubbermaid containers in our basement, labeled by size. Right now we have the warmer clothes in the closet and summer/spring clothes are packed away. My girls are 4 and 9 and I am expecting another girl so I am saving a lot of stuff to pass on to the little ones but I went through the things again this weekend and was able to put together 3 huge bags for Salvation Army (some of my stuff too but not much). I am still shocked at how much clothing we have but I hardly ever have to purchase clothing for the girls since we get hand-me-downs and pass things from one girl to another but it was nice to get organized and see what we have. Good luck!!

I have been living out of laundry baskets becuase I just can't get stuff organized. I have given away lots of stuff but I feel like I have clothes everywhere. i do have an extra closet that I use for hanging stuff that doesn't fit into drawers but I just wish I could let go of some of the clothes.

We have the same issue. I'm interested to see some suggestions. best wishes as you dig through your clothes! We're in the same boat.

By chance are you storing seasonal clothes in your dressers and closets? I don't have seasonal clothes really because I live in the bay area but when I lived up in Washington, I used those vacuum sealing bags to store the out of season clothes and that gave me room to put my clothes I wear presently in drawers and closets.
