COLOR SCHEMES
COLOR IDEAS FOR THE BABY'S NURSERY

Choosing baby crib bedding with pleasing color schemes is one way to plan the basic layout of the baby nursery. Professional decorators and artists make it their business to know the theory behind various color combinations and how they affect moods and behavior. As moms, we may just know what’s best for our home and frankly that’s fine.

I’m not going to give a baby nursery design tutorial here. I just want to share with you the best decorating tip that I know and to make it easy for you to have an opportunity to view the many different colors of baby stuff before you head out to the baby discount store or start keying in the credit card numbers at your favorite baby website online.

Take a look at the collections of modern as well as traditional or classic baby color combinations that are found in the baby bedding that are currently available. Take your time and consider your options. You might start with your favorite colors, but be open minded and take a look to see if there’s a modern theme or combination of colors that might be the key to your dream nursery.

Narrow it down to several sets of baby bedding with pretty color combinations and bring them home and put them on display in the baby’s bedroom. You don’t have to buy the entire collection. It may be possible to bring home a small pillow or only the comforter or blanket to see if the set will work in your bedroom. Colors can be very deceptive. What looks great in the store might be too cool or warm in value for the space.

Assuming at this point in the decorating process that you have chosen your favorite nursery bedding, you can now began to choose the best colors for the rest of the nursery. This is the part where you decide whether to go with a primarily neutral theme with pops of accent colors scattered throughout the room or would you prefer something modern and monochromatic? This is the part where I'm going to tell you to stay the course to avoid confusion. Take a moment to remember all of the reasons that you loved the baby bedding set that you purchased.

Is the background of the fabric a neutral shade with an overlay or printed pattern of characters, flowers or other colorful prints? One piece of decorating advice that I hear professional decorators repeat time and time again is to repeat the color schemes from an inspiration piece of fabric which in this case would be your baby crib comforter or baby duvet cover.

There are lots of excellent decorating tips and suggestions for the very best color schemes for a baby's nursery and many good articles and books on the subject. Choosing the best color schemes for your baby fabrics, baby nursery themes, color schemes and patterns and combining them successfully with the other elements of the room and crib decorations for a baby boy's nursery or baby girl's room can be a process of trial and error, but it can also be fun! Let me know if there are bold and unusual color schemes that work for you. Send pictures!
