I'm doing space bags too and I put a piece of printer paper in the bag with the size.

I am using spacebags. I have been meaning to get a storage bin to stack the bags so they are neater and not sliding around, but I haven't gotten around to it yet

I just used a sharpie to write the size directly on the space bag, lol. I have a few bags in a Rubbermaid bin that's just marked "baby clothes."

I, too, do/did space bags and had a piece of paper on it with exactly what was inside (season, size, etc.) and I stack them sideways on shelves in the basement..

i use the large pampers boxes with a garbage bag inside. I label the outside and they are easy to stack in the attic. All the clothes are in good condition four years later for DS#2

That's a great idea!

I used my old large pamper boxes and sorted by size in plastic bags from gymboree b/c they have a drawstring easy closure. Sometimes BRU also sold a large rubbermaid tub with pampers so we have that too.

Large rubbermaid tubs. I was team green last time, and knee I would be for dc#2, so I have one tub of neutral clothing. The rest of the tubs are by size, and I have one for shoes and outerwear.

Rubbermaid bins. We did space bags but they always opened.

I use the large diaper boxes too..I use the plastic from the dry cleaners to line the box so that the clothes are protected in the plastic bag. Saves space than those plastic bins...and everything that's in a diaper box is easy for me to see its old baby stuff.
I even use the wipes bulk boxes to store dd old shoes Chat Icon

I use those big rubbermaid containers and sort by size. I'm due with #2 in May so I have to start pulling them back out soon!

Re: How do you store/ organize outgrown clothes?

I'm trying to not to save much because it's a lot. I have bins and I will save one bin of each size. Except if a size was inbetween seasons. Like I have summer and fall stuff in 18 months so I'll allow more than one bin. We keep them in the basement.
