Pink and Blue • Nov. 6, 2006

My seven-year-old and five-year-old wear the same size.  Gone are the days of passing clothes down, except to little sister who will receive two of everything.

 

This fall I decided to do something I'd never done before: color code them.  Biggest sister has the majority of her clothes in blue and middle sister is mostly pink.  The hours of laundry sorting this has saved me- I can't begin to tell you!

BRILLIANT!!!!!!! As of this winter, I have two in the same size. I had resorted to "if it fits you, you can wear it". But this is much nicer : ) Thanks for sharing.

Melissa-

They're nighties from Land's End. I bought them at the end of the season last year.

my girls would be fighting over who got to have pink! but maybe if the other one was purple, I might be able to get away with it...

Great Idea! - Nov. 7, 2006

Shared by Copperswife
My motto is, whatever works!!! At one time we had six little girls ages 6,7,8,9,10 & 11 (two of our own and four foster children). There were LOTS of clothes that fit more than one person. I bought a set of permanent markers in six different colors. Every girl had her own color marker "dot" on EVERYTHING!!! I usually marked the dot on the label in the clothes; but I loved seeing them all running around the house in their white socks with colored dots on the toes!!!
Won't your littlest girl (so far) have a lovely wardrobe of things from her older sisters!!
