How to Create a Garden Nursery Theme for a Baby

Whether you want a pastel colored garden party or a more Japanese-inspired flower theme, there are dozens of nursery accessories that can create a beautiful nursery for your baby. It can be overwhelming going through the dozens, if not hundreds, of options.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Crib bedding
• Paint for walls
• Accessories

1. Decide the basic color theme you're going for. Maybe cutesy pastels are your thing, or you might want the nursery to fit into the contemporary style of your home.
2. Get a basic idea of your color palette before browsing through the options. If you're dead set on pink walls, you'll probably want to choose bedding and accessories that have pink and purple flowers, for instance.
3. Choose bright and airy garden-themed nursery items if you're dealing with a room on the small size. If you go for heavy patterns, you may overwhelm the room.
4. Achieve a more contemporary look by choosing and abstract nursery theme. Some accessories come in more natural colors like celery green, browns and beiges.
5. Paint some flowers around the room. It's cute to paint grass going around the nursery, much like a chair rail. From that grass, paint some flowers that correspond in color to the ones in your bedding and accessories.
6. Add some flower pots and butterflies to shelves around the room. It will make the garden theme more cohesive and tie the room together.
7. Look for some extras. Many bedding sets come with the option of buying wall borders, picture frames, lamps and curtains. All match the theme perfectly and are a wonderful accent for your baby's nursery.
