Recently while shopping at the Container Store (Heather and I’s home away from home) I came across an expecting couple buying organizational items for a nursery. Upon seeing the soon-to-be mother rub her bulging belly, I experienced the typical cooing response, thinking to myself  “aww isn’t that cute.” However when I glanced down towards her hands, I was quickly snapped into organizer mode and went straight to work. Without hesitation I walked up to the both of them and said…

“Hi, I don’t mean to bother you, but if you’re looking to double your new baby’s closet space and wish your clothes to stay on their hangers, I highly suggest forgoing the not so attractive tubular hangers and instead try the children’s size Huggable Hangers. Not only are they half the width of the plastic hangers, but the velvet flocking holds up even the most slippery of materials. AND, since you will most likely receive different size clothing from friends and family, I’d also grab a pack of Sugar Boogers; dividers which categorizes your baby’s clothing by age and size. (from newborn, 3-6 mos, 6-12 mos, 12-18 mos, 18-24 mos, Toddler +) Trust me, when you have a squiggly baby with a half hanging on diaper, you’ll appreciate being able to grab the right size item the first time.”

God I’m nosey! But at least I’m helpful.

PS. Sugar Boogers may be purchased at stores such as Babies R Us, The Container Store, and for the internet savvy, Amazon.com. Huggable Hangers may be purchased at The Container Store with limited color selection, while the entire collection may be purchased on the Home Shopping Network.
