Baby nursery ideas will come thick and fast once you explore this site. Planning for a baby nursery is a lot of fun but it can also cause just a little tension.

It's every parents dream planning for their baby nursery to have the best environment for their bundle of joy to grow up in, and planning the nursery lays the foundation for a happy baby.It's a good idea to start the nursery planning as soon as you know you're expecting.

But don't be too hasty and try to get everything set up in that first month. Why? Because when you start your project you will get a rush of ideas and if you have gone ahead and started a particular theme and then come across one you like even better, you won't be restricted in implementing the new idea.

Another reason to try and utilize the entire pregnancy term to set up the baby nursery is the cost factor. Baby furniture such as cribs and bedding will not be cheap in most cases and the extra time will give you the chance to spread the cost out over the term of the pregnancy.

The following steps are all directed at setting up your special room and to make the setting up as smooth as possible.

Setting Up Your Baby Nursery

Step #1.. First of all, you need to decide what room you want to set up as the baby nursery. Once you've made the decision, clear it out so you can start the design phase.

Step #2.. Where will you store all the baby gear. Yes, having it all in one convenient place is the ideal solution so if you need to build and establish an area such as a closet then do so. Avoid sharing this room with other items in the house.

Step #3..Once the room has been decorated it's time to choose the baby furniture. Do this ahead of the theme because you want to make sure you create safe environment. Baby furniture such as a crib, changinging table and bedding are vital because these are the places the child will be spending much of his first year.

They need to be safe, especially the crib so do a little research here. Even go as far as checking the history of the ones you like essentially looking for things like whether they have been recalled at any stage. This is an important step so be thorough.

Step #4.. How do you want to decorate the room? What theme do you want? Of course, it's handy to know ahead of time what gender your pride and joy will be so you can decorate the room with the appropriate colors. However, many parents like the mystery of not knowing so when choosing a color for the room, be neutral. Colors such as green and yellow will work well if you don't know the baby's gender.

As a parent-to-be, many things are learned by "trial-and-error." This "trial-and-error" state of being can be experienced through all childhood stages and is somewhat frustrating. Having an idea what is really necessary to furnish a baby nursery can be a time saver and more cost-effective.

Baby nursery decoration takes some thought and planning when considering what pieces are truly important in your baby nursery. Things to keep in mind when choosing baby nursery furniture are:

Safety: Does it meet the JPMA Certified Safety Rating?

Color: Does your baby nursery bedding color combination coordinate with baby furniture?

Style: Does the style of the nursery furniture compliment the bedding?

Ease of use: Are there features (wheels on crib, sliding rail, etc.) on furniture?

Flexibility/Longevity: Can it be used throughout various stages of childhood?

Focusing on flexibility and longevity allow us to ask the question, "What pieces of furniture can be used after babyhood?" A crib can offer a important options once your baby outgrows it. Many cribs feature a toddler rail safety feature that allows the child to climb in an out of bed, but prevent him from falling out of bed. After the toddler phase, many cribs can convert to a double bed. One or both sides of the crib can be used as headboard or headboard/footboard combination.

Another wonderful piece of baby furniture that has staying power is a combination dresser that features drawers for clothing and a side door for storage (think diapers, creams, toys, etc.). Features include back and side rails for the diaper changing area, however it doesn't look like your stereotypical changing table and can be used for years in a child's room.

Keeping safety, color, style, usability, and flexibility in mind when choosing baby nursery furniture will serve you and your little one well as he grows. Identifying your child's current bedroom furniture needs and looking toward future needs can be more efficient and cost-effective in the long run.

Many of the nursery packs available have multiple large images designed for you to create your own wall scenery.

You can perhaps choose a sea theme, dinosaur theme, Disney theme or from many other larger than life sets.

You can do mix and match with nursery wall decals to create a dream room for your baby. You can include fauna, flora, butterflies, clouds, wild animals, and anything else that sets the mood as you enter the room.

There are many alphabet letter sets also available which can be coordinated with images, so you can add your own inspirational words for baby to wake up to each morning or write their names for them to learn. Words and toddler images also look great in the playrooms for your boy or girl.

When setting up your nursery, you can choose a theme based on your favorite tv or cartoon characters for your little ones like Spongebob, Dora, Tonka Trucks, Care Bears or perhaps more gentle baby images with soft colors, or perhaps a more placid room for your little girl and choose decals of pink flowers, fairies and butterflies.

nursery furniture/decor?

I'm trying to find furniture for what will be the nursery and am wondering if anyone can recommend any good retailers? Ideally I am after an oak sleigh cot bed (budget £2/300) although I am open to suggestions and will buy everything else depending what I actually end up with. I am not ruling out good quality used cot beds at the right price.

I'm of no help but wanted to mention check out things like ebay and craigslist for gently used furniture or ask around for stores that buy & sell used childrens furniture. Got any carpenters in the family lol?

Sorry I couldn't help more! Good luck!

Your baby's nursery is the one of the first places your baby receive sensory signals and will spend almost the entire first couple of months between sleeping and quiet alertness. You can make baby's nursery a calm and soothing environment while still offering stimulus to help her brain grow and develop. Use these five quick tips to make your baby's nursery outstanding.

Tip 1: Find Your Inner Serenity

The basic theme of any nursery should be one of a calm and serene nature. Babies thrive in a calm and serene environment that allows them to be relaxed and observe the world around them. Consider the colors that are good for a serene atmosphere, like cool greens, browns and blues. Also, consider other pastels, like purples, pinks and mauves for the desired effect.

Tip 2: Consider the Sex of Your Child

If you know the sex of the baby, think of the images you want to influence that child with. While, most people still gravitate to blue for boys and pink for girls, baby bedding sets are designed with baby chic in mind. There are lots of beautiful bright colors and patterns to choose from to help you design a gorgeous nursery you'll want to show off to all the neighbors. Bright colors and patterns also help to develop baby's brain

Tip 3: Understand How Your Child's Brain Develops

The brain of a newborn and infant is constantly growing and firing. Most of the brain growth happens before the age of two and therefore babyhood and toddlerhood are important times in a child. Red is the first color other than black and white that a baby can see. Consider strong, bright colors to encourage brain stimulation and confidence. Also, consider the theme of animals or other images that a child will learn to identify as the child grows.

Tip 4: Consider a Transitional Theme

To avoid repainting and decorating your baby's nursery as they transition into toddlerhood, you can choose a theme and that will transition well. If you are decorating with a baby animal jungle theme, then paint the walls a soft green or brown as it will transition to a different theme much better than themed wallpaper or murals.

Tip 5: Choose Accessories with Meaning

Accessories in your nursery should be considered carefully as you don't want them to be a hazard when baby become mobile and curious. Instead of choosing trinkets because they fit the theme, consider using functional items in a color or pattern that goes with your theme. This could include a wall mounted diaper holder, a pretty lotion dispenser to sit atop the changing table or dresser or even hamper or toy box that will transition well as they grow.

Name a commonly remembered animal, that does not have a name given for a young or baby type of the animal?

In other words, it seems like most animals that we read about, have a given name for a young member of the animal specials. (Like young goats are called kids, dogs are puppies, etc.) There must be some common animals, that where there's no special name given for the young or baby type of the same species.

There where once many "fine artists" who presumed that illustration was a lower form of art, it was after all commercial art, done to the requirements of a buyer often for the sole purpose of marketing. Norman Rockwell did much to help change this perception. He showed that artwork done on commission is often more meaningful because it has to speak well to the society it is done for. Though he created many forms of art much of what he is best known for is his works of cute art. It is interesting that well most people think of cute art as soft animals and children Rockwell helped to show that the idea of cute art is indeed an emotional reaction to beautiful and sentimental scenes.

"The Plumbers" one of his better selling works of art is a good example of this concept, the scene of two plumbers playing with perfume is humorous, and their friendship is obvious from the picture. It is interesting because while most people will never experience the exact moment portrayed by this picture, its sentiment and cuteness comes from the emotional desire to experience such things, in this case the friendship and humor of the situation portrayed rather then the exact event. Obviously Rockwell's children are cuter visually, however few things can match the emotional appeal of friendship, nor is anything more important socially.

We see this theme expanded into family with Rockwell's painting "Freedom From Want" his ever famous painting of a perfect family sharing thanksgiving dinner. While it is common to look at such pictures and state that no one is this happy, no scene is so perfect, such moments do exist and it is these moments that are most important for they make life worth living. Further paintings are a form of discussion of dreams, the dreamlike quality of pictures is often one of the major selling points of any work of art. In the case of Rockwell and all cute art the work itself represents a dream and so becomes worthwhile in its reflection of human desires.

Strangely enough however cute art can be as much a mild shock as it is an emotional sentiment. Rockwell's "The Shiner" a painting of a girl as she sits outside the principles office with a black eye a huge grin on her face. Though few of us dream of having a child who gets in a fight and is proud of it at school this picture reflects a number of things in our society that makes it interesting. First the girls defiance and happiness through the black eye and the trouble she is in is inexplicably humorous to us. Interestingly this would not be as good a picture if it was a boy, this indicates two things, first that we like strong girls, yet in a strange way have reverse stereotyped girls as being strong. This also indicates that we do not admire boys who fight nearly as much, we perhaps expect it of them, and though strength is admirable in boys it is not so necessary for society as a whole for them to prove it, though at an individual level this is not true, paintings however are a macro level of social thinking and so are different then individual situations.

This macro difference is important to remember in the creation of cute art or any art for that matter, for this difference shows the difference in communication style. Cute art in this instance is more of a social dream, more of a bases for all encompassing emotions, and so individual experience only plays into the reasoning for purchasing not the meaning and structure of the painting. This is what makes Rockwell's works of art so significant, for he created such works for social purposes and so reached social ends.

What are some good prints for a nursery, real art, not bunnies and pastels?

I want to put something in the nursey that will actually be stimulating to my newborn son and not be horrid decor crap with pastels and little animals. I have Dali throughout my upstairs hall and master. Waterhouse in the guest room and assorted others in the living, dining. I had thought of Van Gogh Starry Night or Matisse Goldfish or even some of the Escher color prints. What do you think? I have some 36 x 24 frames ready to go so I am looking for popular stuff that I could find on art.com or allposters.com. Any suggestions appreciated.

Have a look on firstposter.com, they have some clearence art print packs.

First time mothers never forget planning and buying all the necessities for their baby nursery. It's such a wonderful and memorable time in their lives. However, one of the most important decisions new mothers make is the baby crib bedding set and the safety concerns when choosing one. New or expectant parents should educate themselves on all matters concerning safety before even considering the purchase of nursery items. 

Choosing a firm mattress with tight sheets prevents the newborn from being uncomfortable. As well, never put too many pillows, stuffed animals, toys, or similar items in the crib while the baby is tucked into bed. These are a cause for concern for babies that nibble on things a lot since it could get caught in their mouth. Blankets should never cover the baby's head, it's always best to place the arms on top of the blankets to prevent your baby from covering his or her head as well.

New parents should make sure they buy a standard size crib to make sure they bedding will fit properly. Most crib bedding is sized to fit a standard crib, so this will make things easy for you. The fabric should be durable, yet soft to the touch and comfortable for the baby to sleep on for 18 hours a day. Yes, babies under one year of age sleep the vast majority of the time, so a comfortable bedding set will save you from many trips to the nursery to tend to your crying baby. 

Buying a bedding set is favorable to buying separates when it comes to color coordinating the nursery. Not to mention the choice is made much easier. Just remember that the baby crib bedding set will give the room a base look and feel to work with when decorating.  Don't be overwhelmed the choice of nursery decorations, and just stick to your budget while buying only the necessities if needed. You can always make additions in the coming months after your newborn is introduced to his or her new home.

Blanket in the crib with 6 month old??

my son will be 6 months old in a few days and ive never given him a blanket in his crib but i put him to bed in a onesie tonight and its a little chilly....is it safe to put a little blanket on him? I would use the kind the hospital has, the ones you bring them home in/swaddle them in,,,,i dont want him to suffocate
...i just went and peeked at him and he kicked it off already so i snatched it. I still want to hear your answers though because i dont know what age is considered "safe"

My daughter had a receiving blanket on her all the time and did just fine. We were given a baby quilt when she was born and i used it as a bottom blanket and tucked it in tight on the mattress and then covered her once she was asleep with a light blanket. we did fine. she actually moved around so much that it was kicked off by morning and never near her head. Use your gut and do what will make you feel better.

A beautiful and stylish baby nursery bedding set can change entirely the look of your nursery.

But how many pieces needs a baby bedding set? Well, this depends on what you like, but I like the 9 pieces crib bedding sets.

With a 9 piece bedding set you will be able to decorate your nursery much easier and cheaper. Usually a 9 piece crib baby bedding consists of crib comforter, crib bumper, fitted sheet, crib skirt , diaper stacker, toy bag, decorative pillow and 2 window valances.

I find all the 9 parts very useful. The crib comforter, crib bumper and the fitted sheet are mandatory for any baby bedding. The diaper stacker and the toy bag are great to deposit things in them and make more space in the nursery. And finally, the decorative pillow and the 2 window valances make a really good decor for your baby's room.

Also, you may add a few matching accessories to complete the nursery and give it a classy and comfy look. Some example of accessories are musical mobiles, hampers, lamp shades, rugs or changing pad covers.

Now, let's take a look at the 4 piece bedding. In general the 4 part bedding sets include crib bumper, a crib quilt, a crib sheet, and a crib skirt.

The 4 piece crib bedding is a little cheaper than a 9 piece, but the baby bedding with 9 items is worth the price difference. Plus, all other nursery decorations you'll have to buy besides the 4 piece bedding will exceed the price of the 9 piece bedding alone, without the accessories.

So your best option would be a 9 piece baby nursery bedding, but if you prefer a simpler nursery, you can also get a 4 piece bedding and then purchase some nursery decorations.

How much should I charge for shipping on a 6 Piece Crib Set?

Trying to sell a 6 piece crib set on eBay, but wondering how much to charge for shipping. If you have shipped something similar by USPS let me know how much it cost you. I want to ship using the 2-9 day shipping, which is cheaper and slower.
It's not an actual crib, its the bedding.
I just went to the USPS website and put in the weight and dimensions of the box...it said $120?! For a 10 pound box that is 30X26X20...That just doesn't sound right. I think I'm going to have to go in to USPS and have them take a look at it.

Measure the packaging size and weigh it then go to the parcel post site on the web and get you costs from there.

When you are getting ready to welcome a happy new addition to your home, you are going to have a lot on your mind! As a new parent, one of the great joys of expecting a baby is getting ready to decorate the nursery.

The nursery is going to be where you and your baby are spending a great deal of time in the next few years, and it is important to make sure that you make the right choices when it comes to designing it. Whether you have a room that you are planning to convert or you are in a place where you have a completely stripped room to with, take some time and really consider what your options are going to be. The first thing that you need to do when you are thinking about designing a nursery is to decide on your budget. Don't worry, this is probably the least fun part of the experience, but it also goes by pretty fast.

Knowing what kind of budget you have to work with will let you really start the design process, and it will also help you figure out what where your money needs to stretch. Don't look at this as a limitation; instead, look at your budget as a way to get very creative as you are planning for a lovely room for your baby to live and grow in.

The next thing that you are going to need to decide on is theme. Choosing the right theme for your nursery is going to go a long way towards helping you figure out how to unify the room and tie it together. Remember that it doesn't have to be very complicated at all. It can be a simple as a color scheme or as elaborate as doing up the entire room in birds, trains or cartoon characters. Think about what would soothe you when you walk in to see to your child, and what would give the room a real personality. This is a great way to kick off the nitty-gritty of the planning, and without it, you risk having a room that looks rather poorly put together. Color is another important consideration when you are thinking about decorating a nursery. Take some time to really think about what your options are going to be when it comes to color. Check out the light that comes into the room. If you have an eastern or a southern exposure, you are probably going to have light to spare, but anything else might mean that you have to consider what colors to use to brighten the room.

Though a lot of people will default to blue for boys and pink for girls, you'll find that there are plenty of other choices out there as well. For example, there are ways to make a room feminine without using pink. Using pale shades of green, purple, and yellow can do quite well, and rich accents of silver or chocolate brown can be a nice touch. For boys, you may be interested in more metallic shades or even something a bit bolder. Another thing to think about when you are designing your nursery is who is going to be using it.

At first blush, you may think that it will be just you and your baby, but keep in mind that there are going to be other people around as well. You'll find that even when you and your spouse want to have a quiet chat that it can be difficult unless you have some sitting room planned. Babies love to hear the sound of your voice, so why not make up some sitting room, whether that means bringing in a love seat or installing a window seat? Either method lets you make the baby's room a more social place to sit and just hang out with your newest addition.

When you are thinking about decorating your nursery, consider some of the essential areas that you need to have. For instance, what is the corner where the crib is going to go look like? If you are building the room up from scratch, consider installing a shelf over it. This will give you a place to set things like a baby monitor, various toys and other important items. Similarly, make sure that you plan out where the changing station is going to be and what you are going to be using.

The first option that you are going to have in front of you is using a changing table. A changing table has a lot of space for things like extra diapers, but it will tend to be a bit more pricey. On the other hand, a dresser is less costly, but will be a little less multi-purpose. You may also want to consider a piece that you purchase used and then refinish; you'd be surprised at what kind of difference that you can make with a fresh coat of paint. Another great choice that you are going to have in front of you is what kind of fabrics you want to use in the room.

The two main qualities that you are looking for when you want to purchase cloth for a child's nursery are soft and washable. Just assume that you will need to clean it at some point, and remember that you will want to make sure that your baby will like to touch it. With just a little bit of shopping around, you'll find that it is fairly simple to match colors.

There are lots of choices for you to make when you are looking at designing a nursery, so get started and keep your theme in mind.
