The organization in this home is a reflection of what organizing can do for a busy family. Labels and clear categories create the opportunity to empower the family to all participate in daily upkeep.
The Kids Closets
When it comes to kids closets, the most important factor is labels. Even drawer labeling so there is no question where items belong. In most kids closets we’re adding category baskets on the shelf space (for “next size”, “next season”, “sell” or “donate” and sometimes for specific sports or activities) and coordinating hangers.
Pro Tip: Provide incentives for keeping up a space and create solutions that are easy to maintain. This might even mean that items such as swim and underwear are never folded but a simple win for kids is that they are always in the correct basket, bin or drawer.

For an elevated feel, consider sourcing baskets and bins from Pottery Barn, West Elm, Crate & Barrel or Restoration Hardware. When a closet is a focal point of a house, these small upgrade can make a big impact.
Sustainable Solution: For every kids closet we’re always adding a memory bin. Stressing the importance of being able to identify what items are truly special but also understanding there is a boundary for how many special items are kept without overwhelming the every day function.

Pro tip: Display your most beautiful items front and center. Consider where your eye goes first when you walk into a space and make that a focal point.
