I like to create a list of all the following relatives names that will be receiving a gift and write what they will be receiving, example: apron, belt, scarf, dress, shirt, accessories etc. When organizing actual items I like to hang and organize each persons gifts into one clothing bag labeled with their name. To make it even simpler I like to combine the couples gifts into one bag. Use as many hangers as you need inside each clothing bag.
