    DIY Diaper Basket and Toy Organization Project

    DIY Diaper Basket and Toy Organization Project

    We have a dedicated “toy area” in our family room and it has been out of control.

    The chaos really started after Christmas with the influx of new toys and then after my daughter M’s birthday in early Spring things really spiraled out of control.

    I finally reached a breaking point the other day, after the 10 millionth time walking by the mess.

    I felt like it became such an eyesore and it simply didn’t have to be that way.

    I decided to get my toddler in on the organization action by doing a simple “DIY Diaper Basket” that would allow us to access diapers on this end of the house and also have her help me organize her toys.

    Read on to learn more about Huggies Little Movers diapers and see our DIY and before & after pictures.

    About Huggies Little Movers

    I learned that only Huggies® diapers have a stretchy SnugFit Waistband to help diapers stay in place like no other diaper.

    The unique contoured shape provides a comfortable fit and stays in place as babies move and play.

    I also learned that they are now even more absorbent with new and improved LEAK LOCK®—the protection and security you both need between changes.

    DryTouch® liner. Part of the new Moving Baby System*, the new DryTouch® liner absorbs on contact, so your baby stays dry throughout all of their little adventures.

    A before picture of our toy area, yikes! We can’t find everything and it’s really messy!

    I got my daughter involved by helping dust with a wipe and while she did get distracted when she re-discovered her “lost” toys, that was okay because she’s only a toddler and I think she got a little sense of accomplishment doing the project alongside her mommy 🙂

    Here’s a halfway point photo, sometimes things have to get a little messy before getting organized.

    We pulled everything out, dusted all surfaces, swept up with a floor sweeper, and utilized all the containers I have to help organize her toys. Everything has its place!

    Our progress halfway through the Toy Organization Cleanup Project

    I set aside any toys that I can bring to the children’s consignment store.

    I regularly clear out old toys that she has aged out of or that she doesn’t like.

    Anything that sells at the children’s consignment store goes right into her college fund!

    I think it’s good to donate whenever possible too.

    Our finished DIY Diaper Basket on top of the toy shelf

    It’s key to clear off tabletops and surfaces when organizing so space doesn’t feel cluttered.

    It’s easier on the eye.

    1-2 or even 3 items on a surface is okay but more than that makes an area start looking messy again.

    Keep toys stored below in bins.
