10 Kids Closets to Inspire Your New System
As Professional Organizers we’ve seen closets of all shapes and sizes. What we absolutely know to be true is that you don’t need a massage space to create organizational solutions that your kiddos can embrace.
What you DO need are intentional solutions that empower everyone in the household to participate in the upkeep of a space. (Yes! It really is possible for kids to do laundry, put away their clothes, and tidy up once a week!)

1.Keep out-of-season items up high.
(Now they are only grabbing for items they know they can wear and there is no argument about wearing shorts when it’s snowing!)
2. Utilize baskets in the empty spaces when you’re Short on drawer space.
We suggest streamlining the style of baskets for a uniform and peaceful look. Because of the varity of size and color, water hyaceth baskets are our go-to for any closet.
3. Don’t be afraid to add color to a closet.
We were blown away by the perfect color that Britt Snyder chose for this boy’s closet. See more details from #TheGSMagicalMoss Project here.
4. Create space for “donate”, “next season”, “next size” and “holiday” wear.
Keeping only what should currently be worn reduces clutter and brings mental clarity. Ready to donate? Our Donation Guide has a few helpful tips as well as locations in Austin that benefit from your donations.
5. Update a big kid closet with a “locker room” theme with Pottery Barn Locker Storage Baskets.

6. Think outside the box when it comes to sourcing your baskets.
We’ve been a fan of these West Elm Woven Sea Grass Baskets and the bold statement that they add.
7. Upgrade without breaking the bank.
Plastic hangers can create the same calming affect as velvet hangers. Just make sure they are the same color and style.
8. Add wall-to-wall storage.
9. Elevate the look with functional decor.
Place the most beautiful items at eye level and you’ll be amazed at the results.
10. Maximize wall space.
Wether its a custom nerf gun wall, hat storage or a display of personalized art, wall space is always a hidden storage opportunity!
