Baby Room Accessories

Baby room accessories really define the room’s theme. Many of them are still necessities, but there are many extraneous touches that add just that much more to your masterpiece. Be creative and have fun- your baby will appreciate the interesting colors and patterns as he relaxes in his new space.

BEDDING:
Crib accessories are easy because they usually are sold in packages containing all the pieces needed for a cozy crib. Bedding packages usually include a fitted sheet, a bed skirt, a bumper, and a blanket/quilt. Be sure to remove the bumper and any large pillows when your baby starts moving around a lot. He may use them as a step to crib freedom. Hint: purchase a waterproof pad to protect the crib mattress & an extra crib sheet just in case. Nurseryworks bedding sets even have the option for purchasing an extra crib sheet so your spare sheet will be just as stylish as the first.

LIGHTING:
At night, when you are trying to quietly diaper and feed your infant, lighting becomes an important detail. The MIO Shroom Lamp is perfect for placing near your feeding & changing station. It is funky, eco-friendly and will cast a gentle glow for nighttime feedings and diaperings.  Be sure any light you choose is stable or in a safe place once baby starts crawling and exploring.

WINDOW TREATMENTS:
Naps are a very important part of baby’s lives and making naptime as conducive to sleep as possible will keep baby well rested and happy. Darkening the room will assist baby to fall off to sleep at naptime and keep him sleeping at night. Any window treatment you choose should be easily accessible and effective.

RUGS:
Rugs not only are great accents to a room’s décor, but they also quiet rooms with hardwood floors and give baby a soft place to play. 2modern rugs have simple and bold designs that will brighten a baby’s room instantly.

WALL ART:
Wall art is not just to hone your personal baby room style, it is functional as well. Your baby will be entertained by it in his early months and learn from it in his later months. Try hanging the geometric shapes of FOLD Bedding Wall Applications on the ceiling over the crib to intrigue your baby for hours upon awakening.
