Luna's Wardrobe

We live in a rather small house, and every inch of space has to be utilised to its best ability or toy/clothes/children end up everywhere. One of my pet hates is disorganisation. I hate not know where everything is (maybe it's just the control freak in me) and one of my favourite areas of the house is the boiler cupboard. Weird, I know, but I've actually turned it into a mini wardrobe for Luna.

Before using it for its current purpose, the cupboard was being used to house bed linen and my partner's clothes. It was messy, cluttered and generally giving me a headache every time I opened the door. In contrast, Luna's clothes were hanging in a very shakey looking 'pop up' wardrobe which was leaning so dangerously I didn't dare touch it.

Obviously being a boiler cupboard, I couldn't cram a million clothes into it without creating a fire risk. So, in order to keep air flow, and avoid putting anything directly on the boiler, I bought a cheap extendable curtain pole from eBay. It's spring loaded, meaning no drilling required - but also it cannot take a lot of weight. Perfect for Luna's clothes. The rail only holds the clothes she can currently fit into, which are hung with cheap and cheerful hangers from Amazon. All her 'big girl' clothes are in my wardrobe. However, this arrangement makes it so much easier to see what clothes she has, meaning I don't mis-lay things. Because I'm sad I also colour-coordinated the clothes and paired them with frilly knickers etc on the hangers.

To utilise the space underneath the rail, I got an in-wardrobe shoe tidy from Argos (£12.99, available here). Because of the door frame, the other half had to cut a small section out of the front so it would fit, but otherwise it's perfect and creates a lot more storage space.

The top shelf houses a wicker basket with Luna's current sleepsuits and vests, which is on top of a pink Soap & Glory bag full of her 'bigger' sleepsuits and vests. To the right is another wicker basket which has her moses basket fitted sheets and blankets in.

On the middle shelf I have Luna's frilly knickers, socks and tights in a small case, her gro-bags which, because of the weather, are currently too warm to wear, and her hair accessories (some of which are from The Bow Boutique) in another small case.

The bottom shelf houses her very small shoe collection (I'm sure that'll change as she gets bigger!) and more gro-bags. At the moment her memory box is also here, mainly because it's a perfect fit and there's nowhere else for it. The shelves obviously aren't very big, but at the moment they're just right for all her fiddly little things.

The back of the door holds her pram suit and jackets. As you can see, I have tried to really utilise every inch of the space available without imposing too much on the boiler itself. Nice and tidy and organised. Does anyone else feel happy when everything is tidy and in its own space?
