WESTERN DECORATING AND BABY SHOWER IDEAS

COWBOY NURSERY DECOR
Of all the many ways to bring the atmosphere of the Wild Wild West into your baby's room, the one with the largest footprint is the crib bedding set. Not that this decorating rule is etched in stone, but you can sure save yourself a peck of trouble by makin up your mind which set of cowboy nursery bedding works for you before buying your decorations. This is the time to make the decision whether modern or vintage cowboy decor is your taste.

There are some western themed crib sets that are gender neutral that will work just as well for a little cowpoke as a cowgirl. These sets are what make a cowboy baby nursery an exception nursery theme for twins.

NURSERY DECORATIONS
Vintage cowboy posters, horseshoe drawer pulls, wallhangings and other Cowboy and Indian accessories can quickly transform any room into a ccene right out of a Spaghetti Western.

COWBOY CURTAINS and WINDOW TREATMENTS
A homemade bandana valance is a really cute (and cheap) way to decorate the windows. Pink bandanas would work for little cowgirl and as far as a little cowboys window treatments are concerned, the world is your oyster! Colors from bright yellow to classic navy blue or red would be grand so long as they complement your crib set. You might combine two or more colors or play with combinations to find the best one for your color scheme.

No need for themed cowboy curtain rods as simple black iron rods and hardware will do. But there are cute cowboy boot and hat curtain finials that will dress up a plain wooden rod to perfection.

COWBOY LAMPS AND LIGHTS
The most authentic cowboy boot lamp that I ever saw was a pair of real leather boots mounted on a wooden platform that had been wired and topped off with a lampshade. But you don't have to take that route as there are plenty of cowboy lamps and light fixtures in the home decorating stores.

If you already have a lamp and ceiling light fixture or chandelier in place, you can bring them in line with your cowboy baby nursery theme with some stenciling, decals or you might play around with some baby cowboy boots and hats to see how they look decorating the shades of your chandelier.

COWBOY NURSERY DECORATIONS
Drag out that vintage leather saddle, some old spurs or a colorful horse blanket to decorate the nursery walls. A lasso draped over the top of an armoire or across a cornice board (out of your little baby Buckaroo's reach of course) will give your baby's room a rustic and authentic look. This is the fun part of decorating a cowboy nursery because these decorations are what set your nursery design apart from all others.

COWBOY NURSERY FURNITURE
Take a plain old baby dresser and dress it up with some tin star pulls or you might even make your own out of horseshoes! So what if your wooden furniture is distressed or beat up; that's the authentic bunkhouse look we're shooting for.

Here are some more tips to put you on your way towards decorating your cowboy baby nursery theme.

• Old cowboy movie posters,leather cowboy boots, cowboy hats
• Colorful woven horse blankets or cowboy theme baby quilts to use as accent pieces for your western themed bedding, wall hangings or for custom window treatments
