Quick answer
Use the Wall Hanger Veggies as a playful textile organizer to store lightweight baby essentials like socks, bibs, and pacifiers, adding a whimsical touch to the nursery.
Why choose a textile wall organizer for the nursery
Textile wall organizers are soft, lightweight, and safe for baby rooms, unlike hard plastic bins. The Wall Hanger Veggies from the Oli&Carol x Lorena Canals collection is made of natural cotton and features stuffed veggie characters that double as decor. This makes it a sustainable choice that also keeps small items within easy reach without taking up floor space.
What to store and what to avoid
The Wall Hanger Veggies has three rows of garlands, each with a stuffed carrot and radish. These garlands can hold small, lightweight items like baby socks, burp cloths, pacifier clips, or hair bows. Avoid heavy items like books or bottles, as the cotton construction is not designed for weight and may sag. Also, keep the hanger away from direct sunlight to prevent fading of the natural cotton.
How to set up your Wall Hanger Veggies organizer
- Choose the right spot: Pick a wall near the changing table or diaper caddy where you can easily grab items. Ensure the wall is clean and dry, and use a sturdy hook or nail that can support the hanger's weight (about 1-2 lbs). Avoid placing it above a heat vent or radiator. Check that the hook is rated for at least 5 lbs to be safe.
- Hang the wooden bar securely: The hanger comes with a twisted cotton cord for hanging. Loop the cord over your hook and adjust so the wooden bar hangs level. Tie a double knot to prevent slipping. Common mistake: tying the cord too short, which makes the hanger sit too high to reach items easily. Leave about 12 inches of cord between the hook and the bar for easy access.
- Arrange the garlands and stuffies: Each row has a carrot and a radish attached. Gently fluff the stuffed veggies to give them shape. Space the garlands evenly so they don't tangle. If you want to use the pockets between the veggies, slide lightweight items like socks or bibs into the gaps. Avoid overstuffing; each garland can hold up to 3-4 small items without stretching.
- Rotate items weekly: To keep the hanger looking fresh and to prevent dust buildup, swap out the stored items every week. Use a clean, dry cloth to gently dust the cotton. If a stuffed veggie gets dirty, spot-clean with a damp cloth and air-dry. Do not machine wash. Rotating also helps you keep track of what essentials you have on hand.
