Many parents are anxious to start decorating their baby's nursery, some as soon as they find out they're pregnant. Others put it off as long as they can, either out of superstition or because they can't seem to decide on the nursery décor. Whether you fall into the first group or the second, this article can help you out with all of your baby room
decorating needs.
Designing on a Budget
One of the first things you should consider is how much you can afford. The total cost should include furnishings, paint, blinds or curtains, and any other items you would like to decorate the room with. While you may be tempted to go all out on the room, especially if this is your first child, there are some good reasons not to.
First, keep in mind the design you would like. If the room is decorated with a very young theme, you will probably need to redecorate again in a few short years. If you don't mind redecorating again, then try to establish a very small budget on this room. There's no sense in spending thousands of dollars if you plan to get rid of it all in five years.
Secondly, the more you would like to do in a room, the more expensive and time consuming it will be. Remember, simple is not only easier to do, but easier to pay for, as well.
Splurge on One Item
If you do feel like splurging, then choose one item that you feel is worth that extra amount of money. Bay nursery bedding can cost quite a bit of money, but it also comes in a variety of styles and can really add something to a room. You may find a set that's expensive but just so fabulous that you would like to design the whole room around it.
Once you have established a budget, start thinking about ways you can cut corners. Just because you end up paying far less than what you budgeted doesn't mean you can't have a beautiful baby nursery.
