Organizing a Small Nursery Closet

Our Home

7 May

This post is sponsored by California Closets. Thanks for supporting brands that I really love and that make this little blog of mine possible!

I know I haven’t had a chance to get the full nursery reveal up here yet, but I promise it will be up this week or next! Can you guys believe I’m already 37 weeks this week?! Holy cow! I have been nesting like crazy and finalizing everything I can before our baby girl arrives this month. I really wanted to make her closet as organized and neat as possible, because there is SO. MUCH. BABY. STUFF! I have become more minimalistic over the past year, and really did not want or need unnecessary baby items. Even with all the necessities, it was hard to organize the small closet in her room with all of the toiletries, clothes, and gadgets. I worked with Jessica from California Closets to really maximize the space and I love how it came out!
It’s nothing fancy, and I’m okay with that. It’s practical and works so well for our family, and left us with extra room to put things as time goes on and we get more baby stuff. Working with California Closets was great! They come into your home and identify the space you want to do over, and start by taking measurements and asking a variety of questions. When my consultant, Jessica, works on closet projects, she likes to measure how much hanging space her client is currently using, and identifies the quantity of shoes, handbags, drawers, etc. It helps her when explaining her new design and comparing what they are currently using and what they will gain from working together. What’s great about California Closets is that their design consultants will collaborate with you to create a custom design that meets your needs, reflects your personal style, and works within your budget!

I love the cube organizers because they are a great way to organize so many things. I stored Layla’s books here so they are easy for her to grab when she’s old enough, plus it will keep them orderly. I’m storing some random things such as lotions and soaps, bathing suits, and hats in the baskets on the bottom. In the vintage locker baskets, I have her burp clothes, bibs, and small toys and rattles. On the top shelf I have these stackable organizers, which is where I have the extra wipes, medicine, and just a few random things. I also have some extras on hand up there for what ever we need them for. 

To organize Layla’s clothes, I put all her outfits and sleepers in the closet, and separated them by months with these cute dividers I found and printed off Pinterest. I rolled all of her onesies and put them into her bureau inside of drawer organizers.

For now, I have two diaper bags in there on the floor, and I’m using the stackable unit for all of her baby carriers. When Layla arrives soon enough, I will be sharing all about our baby wearing journey, which I am super excited about! But anyway, I really learned to utilize all of the space we had in this closet and I can’t wait to dress my baby girl in all of her cute clothes. Not only does California Closets help transform closets, but they do mudrooms, pantries, and much more! Scheduling your own consultation is super easy and many locations offer seasonal promotions or financing options.

Check out this video with California Closets and how they work with the Konmari Method to organize!

our time together as a family is a gift. and i wil our time together as a family is a gift. and i will never forget 6 years ago pleading to god to make us parents. he delivered 🙏🏼 and gave us four of the most beautiful children i could have ever imagined. 📸 @sadiecooperphotography
August 1st at 9:56am our Jaxson Jeremy was born at August 1st at 9:56am our Jaxson Jeremy was born at home, weighing in at 11 pounds!! 😍😅 ELEVENNNN pounds. Lol. We are all doing so well now, resting and settling into being a family of 6. 🫶🏻 I’m not quite ready to share our birth story just yet as we had some complications, but when the time is right I’ll record a YouTube video and share all the details. Until then, we’re soaking up all the newborn snuggles with our littlest love. Forever blessed for my growing family and the ability to birth these beautiful humans.
Yet again another child to be born after my “due Yet again another child to be born after my “due date” 🤪 Trusting in God’s timing is not always easy, but I’m trying. 💙 Dalton was my longest pregnancy at 43 weeks; this little guy better not make us wait another 2 weeks though! 😅 Layla was 40+5 (induced) and Gabby was 39 weeks (csection) 

Ready for another beautiful home birth, whenever Jaxson is ready. 🫶🏻 At what gestation were your babes born?!
38 weeks with my little Jaxson Jeremy 💙 it’s 38 weeks with my little Jaxson Jeremy 💙 it’s crazy as I have more kiddos how fast the pregnancies go. I feel like I blinked and we’re almost here. Now to getting my ducks in a row! I’ve been nesting like crazy, deep cleaning my house, tending to the garden and just have to get my freezer meals prepped and I’ll be ready *i think* 😅 It’s funny because Dalton didn’t come until I was 43 weeks which is literally 5 more weeks from now…. I just might melt from the summer’s heat if I have to wait another 5 weeks 🤣 But for real, babies come when they are ready. No crazy natural inductions happening over here. Just patience. However, we’re ready whenever you are, my little man 🫶🏻
Garlic has quickly become one of my favorite thing Garlic has quickly become one of my favorite things to grow! Set it and forget it! I planted my garlic in October & it will be ready to harvest in July. Using the scapes in recipes is a great way to add garlic flavor and utilize the garlic before it’s ready to harvest. I planted both hard neck and soft neck, so I will save the hard neck varieties over the Fall/Winter and use the soft neck fresh. Have you ever planted garlic before?!
