Wink decorating baby rooms

Does any know any good sites or ideas on how to decorate a baby room. If you do please let me know. I fall a bit flat in the artistic department.

Tks lathama

We went and visited all local furniture stores to get ideas. It was very helpful. I also found the following article on the Internet:

Hi

Other ideas for decorating inexpensively include drawing hundreds of happy faces with coloured markers, purchasing brightly coloured wallpaper borders, stencilling your own borders, or hanging either baby quilts or brightly coloured children's placemats on the wall as decorations. If you are good at handicrafts, you can save yourself a pretty penny by making padded wallhangings and other decorations.
If you do decide to spend a little more money and wallpaper your baby's room, try to find something that isn't too babyish. Pastel ducks may look cute now, but just try to convince your five year old boy that ducks are where it's at when he has his heart set on race cars or teenage mutant ninja turtles! Also, make sure that any wallpaper that you choose is scrubbable. The wallpaper is likely to be hit with any number of substances from spitups to crayons to things we don't even want to mention.
The same goes for flooring. Stain resistant carpet or hardwood floors are worth every penny when you consider the types of abuse the floor is likely to encounter during your baby's first few years. If you've already got wall-to-wall carpet down in the nursery and you're concerned that it might not weather your child's babyhood particularly well, an area rug might be a good investment.


Thanks
Have a nice time ahead

Hello
These are some ideas of Baby Shower Decorations that you could use. Use a few of them or use them all, depending on your theme, time, and budget:
One of the cutest ideas is to string a clothes line across the room and use clothes pins to hang little baby clothes, onesies, baby socks, bibs, towels, and more on the line.
Also, with the clothes line, you could take 10 diapers (either disposables or cloth) and use non-toxic paint or permanent marker of any color (blue, pink, or yellow) to write one big letter on each diaper to spell B-A-B-Y S-H-O-W-E-R. Then Pin up the diapers on the clothes line.
Candles will make the baby shower feel elegant and classy. You can find candles of different colors and scents to match any Baby Shower theme. Light blue, pink, or yellow candles would fit well with all baby shower themes.

Hi

If you'd like to create a beautiful nursery for your baby without depleting your bank account, keep the following tips in mind. Use paint instead of spending a lot of money on wallpaper. Invite friends and relatives to come over and dip their hands into a bucket of paint and then place their handprints on the wall. They can then sign their names underneath. This way, your baby gets to enjoy a brightly coloured room covered in the type of highly contrasting pattern that most appeals to young infants. What an interesting way to introduce your baby to the numerous significant people in his or her life! Other ideas for decorating inexpensively include drawing hundreds of happy faces with coloured markers, purchasing brightly coloured wallpaper borders, stencilling your own borders, or hanging either baby quilts or brightly coloured children's placemats on the wall as decorations. If you are good at handicrafts, you can save yourself a pretty penny by making padded wallhangings and other decorations.

Hi

Tips:

  1. Be sure to think SAFE! If you borrow or buy an old crib, playpen, or car seat, be sure that it complies with current safety standards. Always think of your child's safety before good looks!
  2. You can achieve a decorator look by choosing coordinated wallpaper and fabrics for a wall hanging, quilt, and window coverings.
  3. Be sure to have all the baby essentials conveniently located where you'll use them. You won't want to have to walk away from the infant to get some needed supplies.
  4. Don't forget a comfortable rocking chair with soft seat and arm cushions for those inevitable late-night feedings.
Thanks
