SAVE ON YOUR NURSERY DECOR


5 Tips To Save on Nursery Decor Decorations Discount Baby Crib Bedding & Childrens Beds Furniture


Obviously, having a baby costs money, but it isn't necessary to spend a small fortune getting ready for your new arrival. Everyone is looking for new ways to save money in this economy. However, if you find yourself looking for nursery décor, children’s furniture, or infant and toddler bedding, you might be having trouble finding something that’s fits into your budget. Here are some ways to find that adorable nursery décor or bedding, and not worry about maxing out your credit card.

How To Choose Your Nursery Bedding & Decor


- Choosing your new baby’s bedding is one of the most fun things to do when planning for your new arrival. You probably already have your colors in mind, and maybe even the theme already decided on. What you probably haven’t planned for is how expensive some of these crib bedding sets can be. Just try and remember, you can still find adorable bedding at discount prices, you just have to know where to look. Some name brands that offer great prices are Trend Lab, New Arrivals, & Cherish & Joy. Your new baby is not going to know the difference if you have spent thousands on the bedding, or only several hundred dollars. The only one who needs to know is you.

Time is Money

- I don’t know about you, but I am definitely an online shopper. I don’t have time to run all over town looking for that perfect “something”. It is much easier after a long day at work, to spend a little time searching online. What I usually find is that I can find exactly what I was looking for in every color, style, or theme, and maybe even buy several items within 1 online store, save on shipping, definitely save on gas, and haven’t wasted an entire weekend running from store to store.


Try Planning Your Room Before You Buy

- What this means is don’t decide on your room colors first. Find your bedding and accessories first. Then, you can easily match your paint to your bedding. It is always a mistake to paint your room first. Then you are going to have a harder time finding bedding to match that exact color on your wall and you will probably end up spending more money. Save that extra money and buy some of the cute accessories that go along with the set. There are so many cute storage bins, picture frames, and precious matching blankets out there, you will be glad you saved some money on the bedding and will end up getting a whole lot more for your money.

Update an Existing Childs Room with Wall Murals

- Wall murals for babies, kids and teens have really started to take off. Kids wall murals are so much easier than wall papering a room or adding a border. They can come as large as an entire room, or you can decorate with just a few words above the crib. They come in every design imaginable. For example, boys love Nascar. There are “Sudden Shadows” of their favorite Nascar drivers car. For the girls, choose from castles, dots, butterflies, sports, etc.. And for the babies room, your choices seem endless. And the choice is up to you. You can spend as little or as much as you like, depending on your theme for the room.



Furniture That Grows With Your Child

- Another way to save on your furniture is to buy transitional furniture and accessories. You can start out as using it in the nursery, then use is as décor for their toddler room, and then perhaps you can use it as storage or an accessory for their playroom or big kids room. My favorite line is the P’Kolino Kids Furniture. They have a variety of toddler size chairs, desks, and a toddler bed that folds into a comfy chair. KidKraft, Levels of Discovery, & Wild Zoo also offer quite a selection of kids table and chair sets, as well as cute and affordable room accessories, which can easily be used in their bedroom or playroom.


Your nursery needn't look like something out of a decorating magazine; what's important is that it's practical and cheery, and comfortable for you and your baby! After all, you're likely to spend a lot of time in your baby's room during those first few months so let your imagination run wild, and see what unique ideas you come up with.
