Best Selection of Baby Nursery RugsChoosing the right nursery rugs is an important part of decorating your baby's first room. Nursery area rugs not only make the space more warm and inviting, but they play a big role in completing your baby boy or girl's decor. Nursery area rugs come in all shapes, styles and in every color of the rainbow as well as in the top themes and color schemes. New mothers love pink area rugs with patterns of bunnies, flowers and/or bows for a baby girl's nursery and baby blue nursery area rugs with puppies, horses,airplanes or other masculine designs for their baby boy's room.
Nursery area rugs are more stylish than ever before not only because they provide baby with a soft place to play, but because make such a contribution to the design of the space.
If you have chosen a theme or a color scheme, you're ready to shop for baby nursery rugs. You will find area rugs in most of the top baby themes and colors reflected in new crib sets seen in the stores at any given time. Many styles are unisex or gender neutral such as the ABC rugs, jungle rugs, dogs or cartoon characters that will work for both baby boys and girls if you would rather avoid baby blue or pink rugs that are very gender specific.
COLOR The same goes for baby boy rooms, blue nursery rugs continue to dominate the scene but we see an increase in the use of area rugs with abstract designs as well as earthy shades of brown used in combination with turquoise blue and green. SHAPE AND SIZE Whether you will be using your nursery rugs as decorative accents in front of the rocker or at the bedside, when the rug will be used in a nursery there are concerns that might not come into play when decorating an adult's bedroom. Kids rugs should:
Shag rugs or braided area rugs are lovely but difficult to clean so they may not be the best option for a kid's bedroom. If your baby suffers with allergies, wool area rugs (unless your baby is also allergic to wool), manufactured without irritating chemicals or dyes might be an option. Check to see if the rug has had stain protection or mothproofing applied. Wool is naturally flame retardant so there would be no need to apply a flame retardant to the fibers. If you are concerned with air quality in your home, but enjoy the comfort of carpet a wool rug may be for you. The only drawback with non-allergenic wool area rugs would be that they are not very colorful.
Nylon area rugs are another option for the nursery as well as the kitchen because they are strong and stain resistant. However, keep the pile low because a shaggy round area rug might be cute the first day or so, but after that the maintenance that it takes to keep it looking fresh might outweigh the fashionable look.
