Baby Nursery Decorating Ideas

If you are expecting a new baby, chances are you are looking forward to decorating a room especially for your newborn. A baby nursery is great fun to plan and decorate and you don’t have to spend a fortune doing it! Even if you don’t know if you’re having a baby boy or a baby girl, you can come up with the perfect theme and color combination to really dress up an ordinary space into a delightful baby nursery.

Theme. Begin by selecting your theme. Many themes are timeless, like the ocean or a jungle or familiar nursery rhymes. Maybe a children’s character you loved as a child could set the tone. For boys, trains, trucks, sports and cowboys are popular. For girls, fairies, princesses and ballerinas are classics. Gender neutral themes can include tropical fish, sweet birds, bumble bees, farm animals or any of the popular licensed children’s characters.

Decorating the nursery is one of the fun times for expecting parents. The first thing parents need to do is set a budget, taking into consideration the furniture, bedding, lighting, window covering and wall colors. Of course, the main concern is the furniture and, most importantly, the crib. If you are working with a tight budget, baby furniture at discount prices is probably the best way to go.

Garage sales, feel markets and consignment shops are great places to start. They often have used furniture and other baby items that may alleviate some of the decorating cost. Be sure to check with friends and family who have young children and may be looking to rid of some furniture no longer in use. You may also find discount furniture and other items at sores stores such as Walmart, or online sources such as http://overstock.com. For other new furniture pieces at a lower cost, you may want to look at the brands of Graco, Century or Bassett.

There’s nothing more wonderful than planning the nursery for your new baby. If you’ve decided to find out the gender of your baby, you can have the room all ready for him or her when you come home from the hospital.What kinds of things do you need to create a safe haven and optimal sleep environment? The trend for awhile was to have bright, stimulating colors in the nursery or mobiles in black and white to help the baby’s eyes develop.

This faded from popularity pretty quickly as parents found out all that trendy stuff wasn’t conducive to sleep! Make sure your crib conforms to all the guidelines for safety and that you have a good, firm mattress. Keep to softer pastel colors – blues, greens, pinks and yellows. Any color you like is good, although some, like blues and greens, are more restful.Make sure the bedding and the entire room is clean and fresh.
