Shelf

So I had no idea that shelves were so hard to find! But I finally found out I liked at Target, and then the new challenge was finding baskets to put on it, so all the supplies would be hidden.  The shelf was the normal 8 inches deep, and I found out that most baskets are bigger than that!  I would have thought baskets were designed to be put on shelfs, but I guess not!  So I finally found some at Babies R Us, and I got blue so there would be some color on that wall, only to come home and see that the blue didn't match my other blues.  The baskets looked periwinkle, so back to the store I went!  So this is the final project
There's still plenty of room for Micah, without worrying about hitting his head, but I'm also able to reach inside the baskets and get things out with them still on the shelf.  Now I'm trying to figure out baby wipes, is it possible to find a cute container to put them in or make one?  Or should I just make room in one of the top drawers of the dresser for them?  I'm thinking the top drawer, because the baskets can hold some diapers, baby lotion, nail clippers and all that in one, and the other one could hold socks, hats and bibs.  The baskets have dividers in them, so it'd be easy to have one section for socks and so forth.  But the nursery is getting close to being done!  All that is left is his laundry hamper, diaper genie and mobile for his crib.
