Decorating the Perfect Boy Nursery

By Cassia Ann Jordan


Did you just recently find out you were having a boy? If you are wondering how you are going to decorate the nursery, you will be glad to know that there are several possibilities you have to choose from. Decorating your little bundle of joy's room can be stressful, but also fun. There are so many themes and colors out there; you never know which to choose. You can either go with the most popular bed theme, or a theme all your own. The point is to have the perfect nursery for your perfect new little one.

Always keep safety at the top of the list when making decisions. All furnishings, like the cribs, and changing tables and dressers should contain safety certificates guaranteeing their compliance with safety regulations. All area rugs and even the traditional blue rugs should also carry non-toxic dyes and be certified as such. After all, he will not remain in the crib forever, and soon be exploring down on the floor and in the toy box, so all choking hazards need to be disposed of as well.

Walls and Floors and Closets Painting the walls in neutral colors and themes that can change with the baby will prevent the need for removing "baby" themes when he decides he is a "big boy". Since he will need them later on, go ahead and bring in area rugs that can provide a place to sit or stand on for an older child. Green rugs in front of the dresser, and even brown rugs beside the crib, can tie in with the neutral color theme, and be bright and colorful for visual stimulation.

Bringing in colors that can reflect calmness is great for a boys room, because blue is a calming color. Painting the walls and putting other touches of softness at this stage is more for the parents benefit than the newborns. After the other furnishings are in place, you can lay down large colorful Flotaki rugs that will soften the sounds of your steps as you continually peek at his sleeping form. Even bring in a rocker and have its motions quieted by the softness of green rugs beneath the rockers.

Placing a variety of colorful Flokati rugs like blue rugs and even earth toned brown rugs can provide visual stimulation as their patterns break up the solid appearance of the floor. Baby's brains develop quickly and he will learn by focusing his eyes on the different shapes and sizes of the area rugs as you sit and hold him.

For the walls, you can buy paint that is a neutral color so that anything and everything will match or you can go with a particular themed color. For a jungle theme, primary green would be perfect. You can accent the walls with stick on decals that just peel and stick. This eliminates redoing their entire room when they get tired of a particular theme.

The floors can be set up with modern modular stacks of storage bins, and even provide playing activities for toddlers. No matter which theme you go with, the love you share will be reflected in each item you place in the room; and will be appreciated by the young master as he grows to enjoy each carefully chosen object.
