So, recently we just bought some new furniture for our place – you know the kind of stuff to hopefully make your place feel a little cleaner and more “homey”. We have a lot of hand me down type of furniture that is sort of a hodge podge of stuff that does not really match so we needed new furniture bad. So, we bought a new bed, some storage type stuff and a bunch of random other things. Now, we are trying to find the best way to organize everything with it all looking clean and modern looking. We like a semi-modern look.
The problem is now we are having trouble organizing all our diapers with the new furniture to try and make it look sleek while still fitting all of them into a certain place. We are trying to avoid having to shove all our diapers into a box or closet. We like them out and easily accessible and they look clean when they are folded up but we are just having issues I guess trying to fit them all in. I am usually pretty good at organizing things but we have a lot of diapers as you can imagine and we are just trying to think of the cleanest and best way to organize all the stuff while still keeping it all looking nice.
As you know clutter and being unorganized annoys me so this is a pretty big deal to me. If anyone out there has any suggestions on maybe what you have done to organize your diapers or the type of furniture/organizational piece you are using to put your diapers in something to keep everything look put together – I would greatly APPRECIATE any help in this matter. Where we live the furniture selection and what not is limited so if its something you know of online, Amazon, etc. that would be awesome.
I swear I am getting back into posting more and I am going to make a big post on the thing that has been keeping me away from my posting duties and hopefully it will allow some people to understand why my posting decreased for a period of time. Hope everyone has a great weekend..
Hi Adrian,
I am lucky enough to have a California Closet unit with doors that close. I can easily get 50 diapers plus diaper doublers and a couple of reusable bedpads in the hutch unit, and there are also two drawers that can hold more (but they hold computer cables now :)). I believe I got it through Office Depot but looking online it looks like they went ‘exclusive’ (or expensive). They are good though and worth the money. Plus, it doesn’t interfere with my wife’s closet space :). Barring that, if you dont need doors to keep them discreet, a bookshelf would do just fine. Amazon has a nice one: http://www.amazon.com/South-Shore-Collection-5-Shelf-Bookcase/dp/B002VECNTO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1348754726&sr=8-3&keywords=bookshelf
Just remember to anchor it to the wall since with no real load it may be prone to tip. A long screw through the top into a wall anchor would do just fine and it would not tip. That would hold hundreds of diapers :).
Hope this helps,
Colin
Adrian, I just file my diapers in my sock, ext. drawer. But a suggestion world be is buy a changing table to keep neatly your diapers, an adult one. I would.
I just bought seven dressers. (2 chest sized, 5 lingerie sized)
Everything pretty has a place to be seen, and everything useful has a place to hide.
I personally have a armiore that fits lots of diapers, from disposable to cloth and the accessories. It closes up nice and no one looking at it can tell what is inside. Of course I have other several other storage cabinets that contains other diapers.
I agree with Tim, armoires are a very classy discrete way to house your supplies. Sidenote I would LOVE to see whatever solution you guys go with!!
walmart sells these cool plastic bens that are stackable and look like dressors
i have 4 of them for my supplies and it works great and u can use a label maker and label what is in them or keep plain there affordable and big and deep enough for real diapers , bambino ,molicare ,atn, thicker diapers. I wil say i dont hide my supplies do to being incotient and maybe that comes with time of not caring but at the same time not having bags of diapers everywhere well hope it helps
Hello. Been a while since I postes something here. I haul cabinets of every size and make you can think of and its a lot of work. Be sure to thank your truckers that transport them to the store of your choice or happen to have them just deliver it to your house for whatever the case may be. I was ordered to field destroy one item today. Basicly, find a dumpster on dump it. Instead kept it with me and managed to find someone that had interest in it and made a little nicknack/lunch money and no trouble what so ever and that was a first. Take it easy. Dragon-Knight
What about those plastic drawers they make? They sell them at places like Target and Walmart in all kinds of sizes:). Maybe those might help. Since they come in so many different sizes, you can have then in spots like under beds, in between furniture, under tables, etc. Then, when you need to change, you can pull open one of the drawers and voila^_^. I hope my idea can be of some help.
Hi there! I’m a furniture and cabinetmaker (and ABDL) from the midwest. I’d be more than happy to help you design a custom piece that fits in your decor and provides as much function as it does form. Not sure if you’ve solved this problem yet, as I see I’m a few months behind. If not, I’m here to help!
What about putting an adult changing table from ab custom furniture in a room that doesn’t get used much that way you got storage underneath the table and also have a place for other individuals who wear diapers a place to change as well.
