N...is for Nursery Closet!

So, very soon... I will be ready to unveil the nursery.  We made some MAJOR progress this weekend.  As a teaser today, I thought I would share our nursery closet.   We live in an older house which translates to poor closet space!  We are super lucky that our master bedroom has a large walk in closet, but the other bedrooms have small closets.

The nursery closet got a real update as it was not so user friendly before.  I forgot to take a before photo, but did photograph the other guest room closet so you can get an idea of what it looked like. (Gotta work on that one next.)  It had one bar and a lot of crap crammed in.

What did we do?  We added a second bar and second shelf to the baby's closet.  These additions are huge as it adds more space for hanging!  I also bought matching baskets for the shelves for all the little items (pj's, onesies, bibs, hats, etc).   I got all the baskets at the Christmas tree shop for cheap.  I bought two large bins for closet floor (that are pretty and coordinate with baskets) that I am going to use as hampers (easily carried downstairs).

I think this closet went from being a sad little dark closet to a happy place with plenty of storage (at least for now).

AFTER




Progress right?  I still want to get something for the door ... have a few ideas up my sleeve.  I will update you when it is totally finished.   Gotta work with what you have!  I am very pleased and I think our little gal will be too!  (And yes, I have bought her some clothes... don't judge me.)

Until next time.....xoxo

C.C... Colorful Closet!

So, I am really into pretty closets.  I love organizing and we are starting to tackle the soon to be baby's room!  I spotted a really cute closet recently (cannot find photo).  I love the idea of painting the inside of a closet a bright color.  It is just cheerful and pretty!  Perfect for a nursery or linen closet or pantry- pick a color and paint the inside.  Add some shelves and organization and voila!

Here are are inspiration photos to get the creative juices flowing!
