Keep things close

Make sure to have ample functional storage space

You’ll need a lot of things for your baby. Make sure that you have lots of storage space so that you can keep the things back in their original places when you aren’t using them. Avoid clutter.

Use heavy curtains or shades on the windows

The lighting in the nursery should mimic nighttime, anytime. Use heavy curtains so that the room is dark even when it’s time for the daytime nap. If you put light shades on the windows, they’ll not be able to block the sunlight. So, opt for heavier curtains.

Don’t hesitate to use antiques

If you have received an antiques from your grandmother, or if your mother has given something that you used to use or play with as a child make sure that you keep it in your baby’s room. It’ll offer the room a sense of love that’s trickled down generations. Even an old rocking horse will look awesome in a bay’s room even if your baby can’t play with it yet. You can even put up old picture frames on shelves. Perhaps try hanging knitted quilts on the walls for a unique look?

Don’t use the color white

A white chair or rug may look very stylish but will turn in to a dingy taupe color within a few months. Choose furniture that you can quickly clean, or has a darker color so that the stains don’t become too prominent.
