SAN FRANCISCO — Husband and wife design duo Chris and Julia Marcum have collaborated with Pottery Barn Kids on a line of children’s home furnishings, including furniture, décor and bedding.

The couple, who share their design and home renovation expertise through the Chris Loves Julia blog and on Instagram, drew on their experience as parents of three daughters for this collection, which is their first within the children’s home furnishings category.

“This collection was designed with rich woods, nostalgic silhouettes, fresh patterns and lots of character, with our daughters in mind,” said Julia Marcum. “We wanted to design pieces that could grow with our kid’s or teen’s room.”

According to a post on the couple’s blog site, the collaboration was first initiated in 2021. Pottery Barn Kids “mentioned that they had been following our renovations for a few years and loved our take on kids’ spaces, and would love for us to imagine what a full kids’ collection would look like,” the couple wrote.

Included in the collection are a turned-wood convertible crib, twin bed, nightstand, dresser and swivel glider with ottoman as well as lighting, artwork, a mirror, wall mural, sheets, reversible quilt with shams, blankets and more.

“We admire the rapport and connection Chris and Julia have built with their engaged community, and we’re thrilled to partner on a collection of quality, vintage-inspired products true to their aesthetic,” said Jennifer Kellor, president, Pottery Barn Kids.
