DECORATING IDEAS

When looking for direction in baby decor, western baby items always seem to catch my eye. Western theme decorative accessories are so versatile and more times than not the colors are so peaceful and serene. There are the occasional lively pops of bright red and yellow even in the subdued vintage cowboy prints but they are balanced beautifully with the earth tones of the leather saddles and the sand of the desert landscape.

Western themed baby items for the nursery are so common that everything you would need to complete your baby decor can be purchased at your local baby discount store. Your little cowboy or cowgirl’s bedroom can be decorated from ceiling to floor in charming bunkhouse style with shining, modern decorations.
However, if you are game for a little scavenger hunt to the horse barn or to your friend’s farm, you may pick up many unique western theme decorations for free.

Here are some decorating ideas so that you will know exactly how to create the perfect baby decor with an old western cowboy theme.

COWGIRL and COWBOY BEDS

A little cowpoke’s got to have a place to put his blanket and rest after a long day out on the wide open range wrangling his herd of cows. How fancy or plain you want the crib or bed to be depends on how rustic your baby decor is destined to be. There are luxury cribs in wrought iron with galloping horses and stallion heads on the crib finials as well as the headboard in the high end price range that would fit just as nicely in a camp house as in a pretty little cowgirl’s room decorated with dainty pink baby decor.

If money’s tight, here’s one of my favorite decorating tips that will work with most any baby’s nursery theme. Buy a cheap, used (recently manufactured with appropriate safety ratings) baby crib, give it a makeover by painting it to match your nursery’s color scheme and stencil some western designs on the headboard and footboard. Heck, if you think it’s safe, you might glue or nail some old horseshoes to decorate the bed.

WESTERN CHANDELIERS and COWBOY CEILING

Western chandeliers with leather cowboy boot bases and bandana print lamp shades are the perfect ceiling decoration as well as lighting based on bucking broncos or with the wiring strung through steer horns. A high quality nursery chandelier of this type will cost big bucks, so you might want to consider a ceiling fan in black and white cow print that would be more inexpensive.

WESTERN COWBOY RODEO RUGS for the BABY’S NURSERY

Your cowboy baby décor will need a western rug to cover the rough planks on the floor. The right cowboy rug will even dress up your polished hardwood in front of the crib. A round braided area rug, a rectangle rug with pictures of old time cowboys printed on it or a large cowboy and horse shaped rug would all be welcome additions to the western baby décor depending on the color of the cowboy baby crib bedding set and size of your nursery.
