Nursery Rhyme Bedding Choices
As you begin decorating your baby’s nursery, you’ll have lots of decisions to make. For example:
- Colors.If you know whether your baby will be a boy or a girl, then you might decorate accordingly. However, there are lots of wonderful color combinations, such as turquoise/tan, lime green/white, or lilac/yellow that will work with either gender.
- Accents. Choosing to focus on nursery rhyme bedding means you’ll have lots of wonderful accessories to choose from. Lamps, rugs, wall murals, blankets, shelves, clocks, toy boxes, and storage bins can all feature nursery rhyme characters and play up the theme.
- Art work. With so many wall murals murals available, you may be able to find the perfect nursery rhyme mural to match your child’s bedding. If not, look for inexpensive prints at local stores, such as Hobby Lobby or find some great paintings and prints at online auctions such as eBay.
Bedding To Last
If the thought of redoing your baby’s nursery after a couple of years fills you with dread, then consider purchasing nursery rhyme bedding that will grow with your child. Nursery rhyme theme bedding doesn’t just have to work for infants. Typically crib bedding sets feature blankets, bumper pads, and fitted sheets. You can, however, choose nursery rhyme bedding that works just as well for a toddler, too.
Toddler bedding sets can use the fitted sheets from your crib bedding. You can also search for toddler comforters, which will be larger than your crib blankets and quilts. Toddler bedding sets also typically include a pillow case and a top sheet, as well.
Where To Buy
Where can you find nursery rhyme bedding? You have quite a few options, including the following:
- Resale shops. Because used toddler bedding often looks just like new after a year or so, many parents choose to place the bedding in resale or consignment shops to make a little extra cash. Obviously, you’ll never know what you might find until you visit the shops, so visit them periodically, and let the shop owner know that you are looking for nursery rhyme bedding. She may allow you to leave your name, so that she can contact you if something similar comes in.
- Yard sales. Don’t overlook yard sales and garage sales. Many people advertise at least some of their merchandise in the classified yard sale section of the daily newspaper. If you notice a sale that features baby and toddler items, and it’s nearby, you might want to take a look.
- Classifieds. Don’t dismiss the miscellaneous merchandising section of the classifieds either. You can even advertise that you are looking for a specific item.
- Online auctions. Places like eBay make shopping as easy as clicking a mouse. You may be surprised at what you’ll find.
- Department stores. Don’t overlook department stores such as Target and JC Penney. You may find the nursery rhyme bedding that you are searching for.
