If you want to make your nursery perfect for new visitors, you need to follow certain tips to decorate while you are still in the early stages of setting up your Canniesburn nursery. Here are a few of these tips:
Organize your nursery with built-ins
Pegboards can help you keep small items organized, and can also be used as beautiful decoration. Use a pegboard to display pictures of your baby, as well as to keep a few of their favourite toys. This way, you can keep them within easy reach without feeling too crowded. For more ideas, check out our blog about built-ins for your nursery. You’ll be glad you did!
Create a serene space with soft lighting
Adding soothing soft lighting to the nursery is an excellent way to enhance the peaceful atmosphere of the room. Using soft shades of white and cream on the walls will create a soothing ambiance and encourage your baby to explore. You can also layer lighting by adding scones, floor lamps and hanging fairy lights. Consider creating a cosy reading nook in the nursery. You can also add natural elements like plants and scented candles.
Pick a colour palette before shopping for furniture
While you can use the colours of your favourite paint colour as the basis for your nursery décor, you should be careful not to use the same shade on different rooms in your house. For example, a Canniesburn nursery decorated in bright orange will not work well with a blue wall. Instead, choose colours that complement the existing décor in the room. To help you decide on the right colour scheme for your nursery, here are a few tips:
Create a simple space with a gender-neutral theme
A gender-neutral nursery design can still be stylish, while still being functional. While you’re still planning on what baby will look like, you don’t want to limit yourself to boring white and grey tones. You can use complementary patterns in different mediums, like a green and white pattern on a wall or a black and white checkered rug. Adding a few complimentary patterns in a nursery design will help create an impactful and versatile look.
Decorating while pregnant
Decorating while you’re eighteen to twenty weeks pregnant will allow you to have enough time to get everything ready without feeling rushed. However, if you’d like to start the decorations a little closer to the actual due date, you might want to wait a bit longer. You’ll have more time to decide on a theme and the budget, so it’s important to decide these two things before the baby arrives.
