Decorating Your 1st Baby's Room

Consider a baby’s room décor just more than having cots and cradles. Decorating it with a little inspiration might make you a happy parent especially if you are having your first baby. It just might cost you a little extra to get the job done but the results are spectacular; believe me!

Each child is very special for their parents be it one child or four. How about having the light switch cover being replaced by cute cartoon ones. You can make them yourself with a little creative idea.

A dresser is also a big item that can easily be made over with very little effort. You can change the knobs to transform it from plain and a bit dull to quirky and fun.

Go for bright happy room colors. Children rooms should give a dull impact. And if you have decided to keep the color neutral on the walls, consider spicing it up a bit with some wall murals, pictures and children’s wall hangings available in a wide range of their favorite cartoon characters. Barbie, Dora the Explorer is totally in for little girls these days. And for boys Sponge Bob, the evergreen Batman, Superman and Spiderman are the most preferred ones.
Some may even double as a light and any furniture that can serve two purposes is always a great deal. Keep that in mind when you look for changing tables. Some can be used later on as a dresser.

Another great feature in a child's room can be growth charts, available in a variety of fashion and styles, such as giraffes, seahorses, dinosaurs, flowers and cars. If you have planned out a themed room for your child, it will become easier to find one that matches. A growth chart is also something that can stay in the room for a long time as your child grows.

Fun lightings and lamps are also an important part to help to liven up a room. You can without difficulty find something to match your theme and can maintain it for years. If you have decided to have hardwood floors, you may still decide you would like a rug to dress the room up a bit. Rugs tend to be easier to clean unlike carpeting. Smaller rugs can be washed in the washing machine. Even though, you have carpeting in the room already, a rug might still help to bring some pop into the room.

Decorating a baby's nursery can be a lot of fun, but you do not need to buy everything at once. Your newborn will not need a bookshelf right away. One of the best ways to keep the room looking good without breaking the bank is to simply keep adding to it over time. This will help to keep the room looking fresh and allow it to grow with your child.
