Hello, hello! Recognize this trio? If you follow the wedding blog, you may have seen that Jillian recently hooked up with The Container Store to revamp the closets in her + Scott’s new abode. It’s their first foray into home ownership, so they wanted to spend the time to make each room their own. You can check out their his + her closet makeover, and tomorrow she’s sharing her home office. But today, we thought those of you with littles might like a peek into their shared boys closet revamp. Take it away, Jillian…

Sharing a master closet with Scott is one thing, but fitting two boys’ (of different ages) toys, books and clothes into one space is tricky. You might shy away from open shelving, but after working with the Container Store’s design team on incorporating their elfa designs, we were sold. Somehow everything fit together perfectly, combining a closet, toy storage, and even bookshelves.

White & Birch elfa décor Kid’s Reach-In Closet / Bigso Marten Navy Office Storage Boxes / Hampton Woven Storage Bins with Handles 

As you might remember, we’re no stranger to sharing spaces. It helps that Liam is somewhat obsessed with keeping things organized himself (no complaints there), so he actually loves the open shelving. Especially when it comes to his book collection.

Navy Laguna Cotton Fabric Storage Bins

It’s worth mentioning that all of the components in the elfa birch décor Shelving are adjustable. And the birch automatically goes with our decor and is easily complemented by all the colorful things our boys love.

And Dax, who is 15 months now (can you believe it?!), is all about those baskets and bins.

Find more details from our shared boys’ closet over on The Container Store’s blog!

Happy Monday, mamas! Recognize this lovely little boy’s nursery? It’s the same space we shared back in September, that talented DIY designer Courtney created for her little man Henry. Well, Ariel Rose popped over to photograph Henry’s pad once again, this time all freshened up for Christmas. Too sweet not to share, we think!

Is there anything more warm ‘n fuzzy than getting the chance to deck out baby’s room for the holidays?

The “Fa la la la la” pillow is from Pottery Barn Kids. Be sure to grab all of the Christmas decor sources below, plus the credits for the rest of the room we featured earlier this fall.

Naturally we had to have a little peek at the right of Courtney + fam’s festive abode…

The sweetest!

And pro-tip for all you on a budget or if you want to add a little quick holiday color, Courtney tells us that the nursery felt instantly festive after just adding the Santa hat and a few old holiday books. Good to know!

Morning, mamas! Did you catch the modern eclectic nursery we had up earlier this week? We’ve got more nursery inspiration, not to mention this sweet, stylish fam, as photographed by Brandi Welles in their Los Angeles apartment. Their mod LA style is so up our alley, as you’ll see below:

This little sign gets us so excited for a peek at their little fella Jackson.

…You can see why, no?

Huge fans of Dallas Clayton‘s work over here. PERFECT spot for this print, too.

We can already tell we dig mama Bridie’s style, can’t you?

They also headed outside for a few garden shots. Babies and bougainvillea are kind of our thing around here, if you didn’t know!

Brandi wanted to capture their style as a fam of three, so we get the pleasure of getting *double* inspired by baby’s space and the rest of the home.

Best wishes to this rad little trio!

We’re so, so smitten with each and every moody, peaceful scene Amy Melissa Photo shared with us today. The pretty natural light and shadows, mama’s impeccable style, nursery decor, everrrrything is just right.

At home shoots are the bestest shoots. As if we haven’t mentioned that.

All the animals in the crib shots are from Jonathan Adler‘s line for littles.

What’s on your mind, girl? Can’t get enough of that sweet face.

Really though, love this mama’s style. She designed the whole nursery too (no surprise). So lovely.

Love little peeks at the whole abode, too.

Pretty bonnet from Briar Handmade.

Morning mamas! Prepare to fall in love with these photos Britt of Bremnes Photography captured of artist Laci Fowler and her fam and home. Their home is full of art, warmth, and the smiles of one tiny human! All our faves.

This shot!

Laci’s art is displayed throughout their home, and you can see more of her original work on canvas over on her site.

Love seeing a few couple photos wrapped into a home shoot, too!

Isn’t L’s home studio a dream?
