Baby items take up a large amount of space ironically; for the person using the items is so tiny. Cupboard and drawer space has always been an issue in my seven cupboard and 1 drawer kitchen. Here is how I organized some of Elsa's baby items (i.e. bowls, plates, sippy cups, sippy cup lids and spoons). I purchased two white baskets ($2.50 for the set), one pencil cup holder ($1.00), and one pink basket ($1.00) from Target. I found these items in the $1.00+ section. As you can see from the picture, I placed the sippy cups in one of the white baskets (having to stack some of the them) and the lids in the pink basket. I labeled all the sippy cups with a permanent marker with the month they are to be used for. I stood up the plates and bowls on their sides, put the spoons in the pencil cup holder, and put all items in the other white basket. It works fairly slick.

Small; Day 1/1
My family has a small house. Incredibly small. Hence, organization is key. Although, it doesn't always happen.
