Did you organize them by brand? Colors and prints? By type?
I'm trying to decide how to do ours.
Would also love to see pictures!!

Ours are all in a basket under the changing table. We only had Cotton Babies brands so almost everything was mix and match. No time or space for anything else when they are constantly being used!

I do covers and then insert separately. I would consider keeping brands separately

We have a wall mounted organized above the changing table. We use pocket diapers so we pre-stuff them and put them in the organizer. They are pretty much all the same so no need to sort by brand. I do have BG Elementals that are used as backups if we are behind on washing the pocket diapers. They are placed in a shelf organizer on the other side of the nursery.
My BG freetimes and flips and other covers are packed away and needs to be sold since microfiber inserts didn't work for us.

I have ours organized by type: covers with trifolded prefolds, aios, and extra prefolds. When my kiddo was a newborn and I had the time, and a much smaller stash, I organized by color.

We have all BG 4.0s and freetimes. They get loosely rolled and they all fit in the top drawer of his dresser, which we also use as a changing table. We have 24. I used to organize by color but now I don't bother

I just place them all in the drawer with extra inserts piled next to them.

In a hanging cubed cubby. Her changing table is in the walk in closet.

Dumped chaotically into two baskets under the changing table. They're 100% BG Freetimes so we don't even look when we grab one. Once upon a time we used to fold them up and stick them in adorable little rows, same with the cloth wipes, then one day we realized there was absolutely no need. DD loves putting them in those baskets when we're putting away the clean ones.

I only have prefolds and covers. So all the prefolds go in a cloth bin on top of the washer (where we change him for now), and all the cloth liners are in a wipes box. The covers in use are draped on the box and the extras are beneath the sink. It's not fancy but it works.

I have all one brand, so I used to organize by color or pattern. Now I just throw them all into a drawer and pull them as I need them. I stuff them before I put them away though.

We have two (and a half) planned stashes.
1 full drawer for cloth diapers.
Sposies first two weeks (depending on my recovery), so I'll have a section for sposies.
After that, it changes into our newborn cloth stash which is made up of GMD fitteds, and about 6 assorted covers. I plan on putting all the fitteds on one side and on the other side of the divider, our covers (Rumparooz and Blueberry) sorted by color/pattern. And where the sposies would be, I have a handful of AIO Lil Joey's.
When baby is older, we'll switch out the newborn stash for the OS stash. That stash is made up of AI2/Hybrids (Funky Fluff and Lalabye Baby), some BG 4.0 pockets, and a handful of BG Freetimes.
I plan to organize that one by (inserts on one side by brand), covers/pockets in the middle (haven't decided by brand or colour/prints yet), and then the AIOs on the side where the sposies would have been.

I'm using the dresser as my changing table so the top drawers are reserved for cloth diapers and accessories.
I have them sorted by type in the drawers.. Pockets and AIOs in one drawer, prefolds/fitteds in another and covers/accessories in the small one. I also have extra prefolds stored in an organizer over the back of the door.

I have pretty much all the same diapers (RAR pockets). I stuff them after washing and they all go in the top drawer of our dresser/changing table. Extra doublers/liners/inserts go in the bottom drawer. I don't organize by color, though if I had time I totally would

@teacherbee: I love those clear labels!! Do you have a label machine or something!?

I have all pockets. They get immediately stuffed then put into baskets above DS's changing table/ in wet bags for day care. Before he started using them I had them organized by color for a second or two. Now I'm lucky if I get them to the baskets.

Right now lo1 is in mostly BG4.0 and they all go in a bin on the shelf by the changing table. There is a stack of prefold on the table we use sometimes and covers in a draw.
Disposables are also in the bin and night time disposables are in a draw.
I have no idea what I am going to do work diaper organization when lo2 comes along in a few weeks. We had a pre folds service for lo1 for the first 6 months before we moved somewhere with a washer. I am scared about new born poop and all the washing.... Lo1 will start out in prefolds and covers.

I just keep them in two stacks on the bottom shelf of the changing table. I stuff them as soon as they are dry and they're not sorted in any particular way except for the most recently washed diapers being stacked in the back.

@stiletto_mom: Thanks! Yes, I have a label maker. You can buy clear or white refill tape for it. It's an OCD gal's BFF.

@pastemoo: and sometimes just go grab a clean diaper from the laundry pile!

We have a basket for inserts and a basket for covers, I honestly don't bother folding or anything but 90% of our stash is the exact same thing so it's not like it's hard to find what you need. I put a pair of command hold on the end of the changing table so I had a place to air out covers since we alternate two through the day.
