Following on from the nursery tour, I thought I would show you how I have organised baby girl’s nursery and I have tried to maximise the space in the room with the storage we have.
Chest of drawers
As I mentioned in my previous post, I have set up our own changing station using the IKEA Hemnes drawers. I’ve placed a wedge changing mat on top, which I will just remove when we no longer need it.
I have also filled a wicker basket with some changing essentials on top of the drawers. However I will probably use this basket downstairs when baby arrives so I easily have things to hand. As we have already everything we need for changing baby upstairs is in the top drawer for easy access.
I have used storage boxes to separate everything in the drawer, which I have linked to at the end of this post. Firstly, we have plenty of size one nappies – we will be using Pampers again as we preferred them last time too.
We have a couple of packs of WaterWipes and a pack of nappy sacks. We also have a selection of muslin cloths, which you can never have enough of when you have a newborn!
In the back boxes are a selection of nappy creams, coconut oil, colic drops (just in case) and some teethers, along with a variety of baby hats. In the front two boxes are a selection of dummies, bibs, socks and scratch mittens.
The second drawer down is full of newborn and up to 1 month clothes and again I have used the storage boxes to separate them. On the left are her bodysuits/vests, in the middle are sleepsuits and on the right we have knitted cardigans.
The bottom drawer is the perfect size to store bedding, so we have a couple of sleeping bags, moses basket and Snuzpod sheets, cotbed sheets and lots of blankets.
Storage cube
Moving on to the storage cube, I have filled one of the baskets with hooded towels and other bathtime essentials. Another is filled with 0-3 month baby clothes – ready to replace the newborn clothing in her drawers once she has outgrown them.
Another basket contains more Water Wipes, nappies and the car seat rain cover.
The last basket is filled with clothing in bigger sizes which I have picked up throughout my pregnancy, mainly in sizes 3-6 months & 6-9 months.
