Today was a rainy, dreary, cleaning house kind of day so there wasn't much time for sewing or crafting. But I DID manage to steal a few minutes today to craft up a quick solution to a disorganized closet...
She is over 4 months from being born, and Baby G is already getting quite a stash in her closet! I decided I needed a way to keep all those itty bitty outfits organized.
Closet organizers are a great way. These can be purchased online...and in stores, I'm sure, although I've never looked for them so I don't really know. Anyway, I didn't really want to spend the money since we wouldn't be using them long...just until she outgrows that size of clothing. (Is it sad that already makes me sniffle a little to think about?)
So I made my own with some supplies that I had on hand, and couple of cheap extras from the craft store.
I used 4 pieces of felt, a package of felt stick on numbers, ribbon I had on hand, and 4 plastic hangers that came with some outfits I had bought.
I snapped the long pieces off of each hanger, and then wrapped the neck in ribbon.
I cut two 4"x8" pieces of each color of felt, and stitched the sides and bottom with a zig-zag stitch.
Then I hot glued the hanger inside of the top opening in the felt, and added a strip of ribbon at the top and added the numbers according to the size.
I made some quick felt rosettes and hot glued them on for a pretty little touch.
It was a super simple project that took about 30 minutes and cost less than $3.
And now I can keep her adorable wardrobe nice and organized!

Great idea-saves having to look through every outfit to find the right size! I might do that for my closet. Winter size, summer size, etc:)
These are some great Closet ideas. Thanks for sharing.
