Arrange a Baby Dresser - Wash baby's clothes before putting them in the dresser. It's tempting to save time by putting the clothes into drawers immediately after purchase, but it's healthier to wash clothes. This can remove any dirt and germs that come from handling in the store and it can also help to make the clothes softer so that you can avoid skin rashes. However, if you are expecting a new baby, you may want to hold off on washing all of the clothes. If your baby is unexpectedly large, you'll be able to exchange her clothes for the next size up if you haven't washed them.
Sort the baby clothes by type and frequency of use. Give each type of clothes its own pile--onesies, pajamas, tops, bottoms and dresses. You'll then want to differentiate the clothes that your baby wears often. For example, he might wear soft knit pants while around the home and only wear jeans when you take him out.
Arrange a Baby Dresser
Add drawer dividers to help keep your drawers organized. These are simple pieces of wood or plastic that create smaller spaces within the drawer. It can help you to separate different types of clothes and help keep the clothes from becoming a jumbled mess.
Place the most-used items in the top drawer. These will probably be onesies and pajamas. Babies can wear comfortable clothes if they're staying at home. Because of spit up and food messes, you'll have to change baby's onesie or pajamas more frequently.
Store bottoms in the second drawer. In most cases, you won't have to change your baby's pants as often as you do the top, so you can put these in the second drawer.
Whether you're expecting a new baby or trying to get organized with your current one, it's important to arrange a baby dresser so that things are easy to find and readily available. This means that you should think about the clothes that your baby is most likely to wear and organize the baby dresser accordingly. Setting up a baby dresser shouldn't take much time--set aside a few hours on the weekend to complete the task. Does this Spark an idea? - by eHow
