Big closet, tiny little clothes. One of the fundamentally irratating things about organizing kids rooms can be figuring out how to store their clothing. Hang their clothing on the adult-height rail and all that...space...underneath, just taunts us.
So when we saw a Kolcraft closet organizer in action, we were impressed. Because yes, we could carefully measure out all of the wasted closet space and spend a fortune on a perfectly designed closet, or we could purchase one of these bad boys for $19.99 and spend that closet-organizing time out playing in the park.
It isn't pretty. But it isn't meant to be, and hey - that is why closets have doors! The Kolcraft Closet Organizer hangs easily over the rod, letting you hang some stuff, and store the rest on the 8 lower shelves. Mesh pockets on the sides are great for shoes and other small items.

This looks awesome!
One concern I have, as I do with all cloth/fabric based closet organizers, is whether the floors of the "shelves" hold up over time.
We've had a few that weren't very sturdy and the "shelves" started to bow downward after a while.
We bought one of these from Burlington Coat Factory about a year and a half ago and it has actually held up nicely. My son uses the bottom cubbies as "garages" for his cars and the remaining spots are for his jeans.
The side pockets aren't too useful since they are super tiny for toddler shoes, but baby socks and booties should fit fine.
Being in a rental and not being able to remodel the closets, this has been a life saver for the hundreds of clothes little ones seem to aquire.
When our daughter was born, we were living in a typical brooklyn brownstone setup, and her room was that tiny space above the entry. Can't remember the dimesions (8' x 3'?) but there wasn't a whole lot of space.
There was a closet, though, and we discovered that the Ikea Robin 8 drawer dresser *just* fit inside! It has little square drawers that are perfect for little clothing/socks/etc. We've moved 3 times since then, and continue to put the dresser in the closet, no matter where we live. Looks very cute with a rack of summer dresses hanging above...
