How to decorate a nursery? Design and safety for your baby

The design of a children's room does not have to be expensive, complex or deliberately fabulous. There are many options for simple and at the same time practical solutions. It is during this period of expectation of a new life that it is important to prepare a fun creative room for your child, harmoniously combined with the general interior. Believe me, a child will appreciate all your love and diligence!

If possible, start planning the design of the children's room long before the baby is born. Thus, you will significantly reduce the amount of work already in the process of creating an interior for your child. A sufficient amount of free time allows you to more carefully and seriously approach the issues of creating a safe, most comfortable and cozy nursery. As for decorative elements, here you can completely rely on your own style, taste and imagination.

Quite often, the desire to please the baby pushes parents to buy extra accessories. As practice shows, it is the lack of time and space that dictates the conditions for further arrangement of the interior of the children's room. As a result, it turns out that most expensive and exclusive items absolutely do not fit into the overall design or there is simply nowhere to place them. And only the composition of family photos is able to change something and inspire parents to new ideas.

The only point where there is no room for savings is to ensure the safety of the children's corner. Of course, every parent wants only the best for his child. Meanwhile, the beauty and decor in the baby’s room is an important, but far from the main component of the interior. First of all - the naturalness, quality and environmental safety of the surrounding materials. And even children's spontaneity, playfulness and excessive activity should not stop you from acquiring high-quality household items. After all, loving parents devote more time to the child, and in case of any injuries and other oddities, they do not think about the money spent.

As for toys and accessories, this is a completely different story. For a little fidget, a pair of soft teddy bears, a cute picture on the wall, a board for manifesting an artistic beginning and several bright decorative pillows will be quite enough.

Do not be ashamed to take from your close friends or relatives, for example, a crib, a children's table or a locker, but subject to the proper quality and absolute safety. It’s better to save money for the future student or schoolgirl in order to instill a love of learning, good habits and manners, so that later the child can easily achieve their goals and get a first-class education.

First of all, start with measurements, which you can then take with you to the store. Carefully measure all distances where you plan to place children's furniture. Thus, you will always be “armed”. And if you are fortunate enough to meet interesting and unusual options, just a notebook with ready-made measurements will be very useful.

By placing the crib near the entrance, you will feel more free in the children's room. And at night, when you wake up to comfort the baby, you can easily approach the bed without any obstacles. Do not place it near the window - where there may be drafts. It is also very undesirable that there are curtains, curtains and other things next to the crib in which the child can easily get confused.A great idea is to put a comfortable rocking chair nearby for a pleasant pastime reading a book or other exciting activity while the baby is resting.

Make sure that a soft diffused light reigns in the nursery. Contrast blackout curtains will perfectly protect your child from bright sunlight, especially during daytime sleep.

Think carefully about the optimal number of shelves and shelves that will be needed to store children's toys. Keep in mind that little fidgets accumulate a lot of all sorts of trinkets. But one way or another, a child from childhood should be accustomed to cleanliness and order. It is important that the shelves are located away from the crib, because accidentally hit things in the best case can be on the floor, in the worst - to injure the baby.

1. Local lighting. Decorative cute nightlights, sconces, lamps are a great idea when you need a dim soft light during a baby's sleep. But before buying these cute design items, make sure all the wiring is working.

2. Decorative rug. Looking closely at the elegant cute rugs, first of all think about safety. Many of them can cause allergies in the baby. Therefore, to begin with, find out what materials are ideal for the child's body. Alternatively, a hardwood floor with a removable rug that is easy to clean may be the best choice for a child’s room.

3. The color palette and pattern. The color scheme of the nursery is a matter of your taste and personal preferences. Conservative parents tend to choose neutral tones such as beige, cream, white, pale green or pale blue.

Art lovers, creative personalities prefer refined artistic elements, cute drawings and bright wall paintings in the nursery.

The kid’s room of modern and trendy parents is often decorated in the style of minimalism or high-tech with the use of various shapes, geometric lines, stripes and abstractions.

1. Baby cot. Perhaps this is the most important element of children's furniture, and it is necessary to approach its choice with special responsibility. Form, style, decoration and durability are the main factors to consider. Make sure that the crib rails are vertical, so the child will be less likely to use them for climbing. Also check that they are located close enough to each other, in order to avoid childhood injury, when a curious fidget can stick a handle between the slats.

2. Additional furniture. When choosing additional furniture, make sure that it is in perfect harmony with the crib. Indispensable items are a comfortable chair, a bedside table or a table, a wall clock if you plan to breastfeed your baby. It is highly desirable that all furniture be located as close to the walls as possible. So, you not only provide free space for children's games, but also protect your native child from unnecessary obstacles and injuries.

The final elements of the arrangement of the nursery will be an elegant fresco, paintings for decoration, paintings on one of the walls and various bedding.

Do not forget to add the necessary equipment: a baby monitor to know when your child is upset; a special device next to the changing table that neutralizes unpleasant odors. Diapers, wet wipes, baby ointments, powders - everything should be at hand.

1. If you have a large house with enough rooms, and you have a difficult choice of one of them for the nursery, give preference to the one closest to your bedroom. So, the child will always be under the supervision of parents.

2. All purchased fabrics and materials must be washed with a special detergent for children's washing in order to neutralize possible harmful substances.

3. As a precaution, use electrical outlets with plastic fuses.

4.Remember that the new modern models of cribs are manufactured to strict safety standards. Therefore, if you are using an old model, follow the safety precautions.

5. Decorating a kids room should be fun! Fewer dull colors and boring designs!

6. Keep in mind that some of the things can be useful to the child for a fairly short time. For example, a child’s mobile will look very attractive, but it may soon be left without the attention of crumbs, so once again think about whether or not to really buy this kind of accessories.

7. Also consider designing the ceiling. After all, small babies spend a lot of time in the crib, mysteriously looking somewhere up.

8. And the most important thing - instead of standard ones, use only organic materials and substances so that your baby grows up healthy, active and cheerful!
