Decoration

Let us start with how you are going to style the place. If you have already picked out a room you can start by figuring out what sort of wallpaper and carpets you want to use. And if you still don’t know the gender of your baby then it would be wise to pick colours and themes that are gender neutral. When choosing the wallpaper, pick out one that will brighten the room, or you can pick out one that has many images to look at to keep your baby intrigued. When choosing the flooring I’d recommend using a carpet as hardwood floors may make it dangerous for your baby to crawl on.

The Crib

A crib is an essential investment to make for the nursery, it is necessary that you purchase a high-quality product that will keep your baby safe. Buying a high-quality crib will not only keep your baby safe but it also has other benefits, as most children tend to sleep in their cribs for about three years, it would probably be wise to invest on a crib that can be converted to a toddler bed. When selecting your crib it may be an added advantage to pick one out that goes with the theme of the nursery. Now it's time to focus on what goes into the crib, no. not the baby, we are talking about the crib bedding, it is necessary to invest in a soft, cotton bedding to adhere to the babies sensitive skin, Purchasing a couple of sheets would be wise if not you will be having to spend the day only doing your laundry.  

Furniture

Now that the basics are taken care of it is necessary to start purchasing nursery furniture, these include a changing table, a rocking chair; which will help you and your baby to fall asleep and it is necessary to include a lot of cabinets and tables to have space for all the babies toys, shoes, clothes, the blankets and different types of other clothes the baby uses. It may not seem essential at first but it is also recommended to have some bookshelves so you can keep the baby’s first books there and read the baby to sleep.

You have one less thing to worry about now that you know each step that needs to be taken in order to have a happy and comfortable nursery for you and your new baby.
