For every new parent, they have a vision of
what the perfect nursery should look like.
But really, is there any need for you to spend $2,000 in order to
decorate and furnish a space that, in a couple years, they will have outgrown? In fact, you do not need to spend a fortune
of decorating a nursery for that new arrival.
In this chapter, we will look at several
different ways in which a nursery can be decorated no matter how small your
budget is.
1. Instead of using wallpaper, paint the nursery
instead. Why not choose colors which
will co-ordinate with the baby’s toys, rather than going for the traditional
colors? Also, why not invite friends and
family round and get them to dip their hands into a pot of paint and place
their handprints on the wall? They could
even sign their names underneath if they want.
Doing it this way, your baby will get to enjoy a brightly colored room
full of contrasting patterns. This is of
especial appeal to young infants. Also,
it is an interesting way of introducing them to those people who will be
important in their life as they grow up.
2. You do not have to be artistically inclined,
but if you want, why not add some stencil designs to the walls? This is inexpensive, as well as an easy way
of adding different elements and features to a baby’s room. However, it is best to choose stencils which
will match the theme of the room.
3. Where the floor is concerned, make sure that
you have a stain resistant carpet, or just have hardwood floors with some
scatter rugs on it. But if you already have
carpet lay and you are worried that it may not stand up well, then why not get
an area rug which will cover and protect it?
4. When you are decorating a nursery, why not
consider buying some pieces secondhand or used instead? The advantage to this is that you may find
items that are of a higher quality than you would normally purchase. Or it may be you find a vintage piece of
furniture, which you can then refinish to match the décor of the nursery.
5. Why not get an old, beat up chest of drawers,
and then paint with a high gloss paint, and then replace the handles on it?
6. Also, consider buying a piece of furniture
that can be used for many different things.
Do not spend money on buying a changing table, rather, buy yourself a
dresser that is about waist high, and sit a changing mat on top. Then fill the drawers with all your nappy
needs. In order to stop the pad from slipping, place a small bath mat with
rubber backing face down underneath it.
Then, once the child is older, the chest of drawers can be used as it
was intended.
7. Instead of spending large amounts of money on
buying storage boxes for your nursery, why not use baskets and shelves instead
to store toys and other infant essentials?
