Store bibs on the back of the high chair

Store bibs on the back of the high chair
Janell's got the right idea when it comes to keeping bibs close at hand:

We have so many bibs and no storage space for them. We noticed there was a bar on the back of our high chair that could hold all our bibs! They are out of site and exactly where we need them when we need them!

Oh that one made me laugh! We have three of that exact same high chair (one at home, one at my office, and one for travel) and all of them have a string of bibs on the back too! It works great!

Those bars are called bib bars...just fyi.

We did something similar, but we attached two containers to the back...we used Noje storage baskets from IKEA. One basket was bibs, the other was washcloths. I hated the idea of using so many baby wipes and paper towels for cleaning, so I just bought a pack of washcloths and pulled one out whenever I needed it. Then I threw it in the laundry. Since everything was on the back of the highchair, it was always easy to get to.

That is brilliant! I've been taking up real estate in my kitchen drawers when this whole time I could have been hanging them on the high chair!?

I love what the commenter above said - that they're called bib bars. They probably even say to do that in the instruction manual - but who reads a high chair instruction manual? haha!

That is brilliant!

I wish that worked for me, but my love to rip them off the bar and throw them around...

We don't have a bar like that (and I like the "pull over the head" type of bib.)

I attached 3M Command Hooks (those plastic hooks that are eventually removable) to the back of the high chair. They've stayed on through 4 kids.

Thanks for these tips everyone! I attached the bibs to the highchair for a while, but now that my son is in a booster seat, I didn't know what to do. I think I'll try the command hooks and/or basket techniques. Thanks again!
