Organizing Baby Clothes By Season

Organizing baby clothes that no longer fit can be challenging. If you are planning on putting clothes away for future or plan on giving away be sure to keep the seasons and sizes in mind. Note newborn, baby and toddler sizes and include the months worn. For instance 3, 6, 9 months summer, winter or fall. Some consignment shops will only take clothes by season so you will want to be sure and separate. Some brands run big, small, shrink or stretch out. Be sure to write notes about the clothes when packing away so its easy to restock in the future.
Some labels include the weight. This is helpful when trying to figure out when they will be able to wear. If your clothes do not include weight, check the store tag or go online for the company's sizing chart.
