I saved everything from ds plus I've been picking up stuff for dd here and there. I've pulled everything out to go through it, reorganize it, sell/donate/giveaway stuff that won't work for dd, etc. I am currently surround by allllll the clothes and feeling stuck. Should I box it back up by size or should I have category specific boxes like just pants or pajamas?
Overthinking, party of one!

Previously I've done it by size but now that I've accumulated 2 years worth of stuff I'm seeing just how much of one thing you can have!

I do size and season. example, I have a 6-12 month box for cold weather, and 6-12 for warm weather.

I pack it up by size. I use diaper boxes bc I have a zillion and usually one box works for one size/season. Makes it easy to pass it on to my sister when her son is ready for each size. I've also started pulling out stuff from DS's clothes that is unisex enough for M before packing the boxes and just add it to a bin in the top of her closet that I sort through whenever I unpack a new season/size for her. I kind of just copied how my SIL kept her kids clothes packed since I get hand me downs from her.

Mh would like to know "what the heck is wrong with you" since I was obsessing over how to organize this.
Lots of things I suppose.

Don't over-complicate by having FOUR boxes. Just two - warm and cold.

I was going to say just box it up by size but I have boxes of mismatched clothes in all my closets so I'm clearly not doing very well with the organization. ???

Hope. It is the only thing stronger than fear.

I've got several storage bins of clothes from my sister. She doesn't want them back and I'm not ready to give them away just yet so they are in my basement.
