Ways to Organize a Baby Closet

Babies inevitably come with a lot of stuff. From the first day you announced your pregnancy, through the baby shower, baby’s birth and baby’s first birthday you will receive more baby clothes and accessories than you ever imagined.

There is no need to install a special baby clothing bar since the bottom half of the closet can be organized in a better way.
