May. 5, 2008 - Cloth Diaper Baskets
I know most of the people who might read this will skip this entry but those who are interested in cloth diapering and those who just love it will want to see how we organize our stash.
I remember when I was doing research on what kinds of diapers to buy and how to care for them I wanted to see a picture of how someone else organizes their diapers. I was curious to see how different it would be from disposables. Anyway, here are the pics of my changing system. Very similar to how I used disposables with the location being key. I need a potty near by to invert those diapers over. 
I use the premium chinese prefolds only if my bumgenius diapers are dirty or drying. The snappis are an alternative to pins, much easier to use too. I find that the prefold dipers are bulky but they do the job andvery economically too I might add. Ü

I used some soft, flannel receiving blankets I had and cut them in to 8" squares and then serged around the edges. I have about 4 dozen of these. I also use them as washcloths and "kleenex" for the kids.

/>I own 8 bumGenius 3.0s and can't wait to up my stash.I love cloth diapering! I have 5 children and this is my first experience cloth diapering. I'm not sure what took me so long but I am so glad to know all about it now. Cloth diapering has been a good fit for me. We already gave up paper towels and kleenex in favor of a multitude of hand towels and vintage handkerchiefs that make me smile anyway. I have several dozen hankies that my grandma have picked up over the last decade. They are gorgeous and have been sitting in the attic until this year just waiting to be used. I thought I might feel guilty using such beautiful works of art but then I realized it is almost sinful to let them languish in a dusty attic unused. So now in our "green" quest I am cloth diapering. My husband is still cautious but has changed a few diapers. He must be coming around though because I heard him brag to several friends this weekend about the new diapers. It was so funny to me because I can still remember is reaction when I asked him if I could buy some cloth diapers.
