CL: We use plastic bins for just about everything. Once Lyla has grown out of clothes, we pack them in bins and label them for easy storage. They are also great for storing extra diapers, wipes, and other items you buy in bulk.
PL: As soon as she has grown out of a piece of clothing, it goes in a bin in the basement. If you don't have a basement or storage area, use the thin bins that can slide under a bed. Look at the furniture in your home. Make sure you are using each piece to maximize storage. If it has an open shelf, add a basket so you can tuck items away and keep the area from looking cluttered. Add a coffee table that doubles as a trunk or a TV stand that has solid doors for hiding toys and books.
