Once you get that exciting news that you are expecting, one of the first things a new parent thinks about is, "how will we decorate baby's nursery?" The next several months will be filled with loads of things to do and prepare for and one of the them will be getting the nursery ready.
While many parents still opt for the baby's gender to remain under wraps until he or she is born, keeping it a surprise, it is becoming increasing popular to find out what they are having, making it easier to prepare the nursery theme, colors, and clothing.
Baby Crib Sets
With baby bedding, the sky is the limit. There is no shortage of color options and themes, from ultra luxurious and expensive, to more conservative and cost conscious. There also seems to be a trend of keeping the nursery neutral, even if the gender is known. Neutral colors, such as grays and camel/taupe, are very popular and can create a very tranquil and calming nursery. Baby bedding patterns are no longer just jungle animals and cartoon characters. They come in beautiful patterns that look almost like they belong in Mom and Dad's master suite. These soothing more "grown up" patterns are becoming more and more popular with parents.
Of course, pink for girls and blue for boys is still a popular choice. Celery green is a great choice for either a boy or girl and can look beautiful with many different accessories.
Baby bedding pricing can run a new parent anywhere from around 0 on the low-end to upwards of well over 00 for a complete set with all the bells and whistles. A new parent must also think about outfitting a cradle too if one is going to be used in addition to the crib. Matching crib and cradle sets are available if this is the look a new parent is going for.
Crib bedding can be purchased as a set or each piece seperately. Parents can often outfit the rest of the nursery with matching curtains or valances, framed memoboards, diaper stackers, hampers, changing pad covers, wall art, barrette holders, throw pillows, and decorative letters for the nursery wall. Many crib bedding sets can even be monogrammed.
One can quickly see how these choices can become overwhelming. Wanting to make sure the right choice is made without meeting their new little person first can be a daunting task. Luckily, there are many brick and mortar stores, as well as online boutiques, that can make these choices a little bit easier. The internet can be a great place to research baby bedding before setting out to make that important purchase. Many of these online stores even offer special sales to help new parents snag the bedding of their dreams without breaking the bank.
