Storage for 18" doll clothes.
 

I am making our DGD some doll clothes for Christmas. I currently have them in a 12X12 storage container, but it is getting to full. Anyway, my question, does anyone have an idea of how I could make some kind of small closet/ storage for her to keep the clothes in? I am planning to have hangers for them, if I can find I good way to make a hanging closet for them.
Thanks for your ideas!

One of the members on this QB used a small bookcase that was purchased at an office supply store. They took out middle shelf and put a small extension rod to hold the clothes. Also, someone posted a site of where to get doll clothes hangers

Here is a link to this QB member's answer to your question.

I need to make one for my DGD soon. For the accessories I think a shoebox size Sterilite container will do.

i just found a used cabinet that you use vcr tapes for storage it has the doors on it so you can close it. and found a used curtain hanger and attached to the hinge part where door closes. it has 2 shelves for shoes pants and skirts. etc

Nancy's Notions sells a storage unit just for this purpose. I have just been looking. My granddaughter just turned 2, so I will soon be sewing/storing doll clothes for her.

All the above suggestions are great. But it reminds me of a time about 55 years ago when I made a closet and clothes hangers for my doll from a cardboard box. I turned the box on it's narrow end so the top flaps would be the doors. I cut a hole through the sides and used a tree branch for the dowel to hang the hangers on. I cut hangers from another cardboard box. It was almost as much fun making the closet as it was playing with it afterwards.

Use a bedside table with one drawer and a shelf - put in a rod for hangers. Check out Kijiji for the bedside table/endtable

Remember the Barbie cases that had hangers on both sides and opened like a wardrobe trunk with a handle on top and a simple latch? HL or J's had a paper mache type box that would be perfect for a portable wardrobe. I'm sorry I don't remember exactly where I saw it. But it would be oh so cute decorated up and full of clothes. (Now I want to make one, even though I don't have any dolls, dresses or little girls to give to.)

Go on line American Girl Wardrobe closet and you can find plans to make a wardrobe. My husband is making our granddaughters one for Christmas and putting in two rods to hold the clothes so he changed the plans a bit. Some also show drawers but I went to Hobby Lobby and got the stack of drawers from the scrapbook section for the girls to put shoes and accessories in, good luck
