Exciting Themes For The Nursery Make Decorating For Baby Fun
Not so long ago, bedding for the nursery was limited to basic solid hues. There was white, and then pastel pink, blue, green, and yellow were added, but it was still rather boring and dull. Cotton was the only fabric offered. Next, a few prints were produced, featuring playful lambs or teddy bears. Still later, quilts began to sport cotton appliques, frequently of a fuzzy lamb. Truly interesting nursery bedding, however, remained elusive.
At length, however, manufacturers realized that parents were interested in better products. A flurry of new patterns were developed, and a variety of fabrics were added. Major fashion designers began to take an interest and to create crib products for young clients. Finally, the nursery could receive the decorating attention it deserved.
Individual pieces can be purchased, but many retailers are now offering everything for the crib in one complete bedding collection set. The set contains items that have the same theme. The exact elements vary, but the standard set will usually feature a crib sheet, a blanket or quilt, a bumper pad, and a dust ruffle. The set is usually more economical than buying each item separately.
Designer baby bedding from famous designers is available from numerous retailers. Some of the names, such as Eddie Bauer or Laura Ashley, are quite recognizable to most people. Designers feature a huge variety of themes, from geometrical designs to animal motifs. Exciting fabrics, appliques, and embroidery may also be included.
There is a plethora of themes on the market. Some are clearly designed for little girls, others for little boys, but many are not gender specific. Fish, sports images, pirates, jungle, cowboys, and animal themes are popular choices for boys. Girls might like the angels, flowers, ballerinas, and butterflies offered. Stars, ocean, alphabet, and number motifs are good choices for either gender. There are vintage quilt patterns and abstract geometric designs, and dragonfly and ladybug baby bedding is popular as well.
For those who would like to make it interesting for baby to touch his or her quilt, there are some that combine fabrics such as satin, felt, and corduroy. It is also possible to buy complete sets made of recycled or organic materials.
Accessories can also be found that match the crib sets. Mobiles, lamps, rugs, toy bags, and diaper holders are widely available. Window treatments and wall art to match can also be found. Since there are so many themes to choose from, the only problem will lie in choosing which motif to select.
