When the time came to start decorating our surf theme baby nursery, my husband said that he wanted be involved and as things turned out; he got to make all the decorative decisions.



He made all of the choices that you see in the pictures from the crib set to the colors for the cool painting technique that he used to paint the nursery wall.

Since we knew that we were having a baby boy and that his daddy loves to surf; a surfing theme was the natural way to go.

BOLD PLAID NURSERY WALL PAINTING TECHNIQUE



One of the first steps we made in decorating our surf theme was to paint the wall beside the crib with a bright, modern plaid design. The paint colors that we used are ocean blue, lime green and white with red and ocean blue accents.

Baby Boy Surfboard Nursery Design



The surfboard behind the crib is the actual board that his daddy uses to surf the waves at our favorite beach.

I made the hand-painted beach theme nursery artwork hanging above his crib titled "WELCOME" with the waves welcoming visitors to the baby's room. Also, there is a bright and colorful surfboard awning window treatment that was cut out from aluminum.

The results are a surf themed nursery that is so much fun and our son seems to love all of the bright colors!

This baby's daddy is a surfer dude that knows something about Unique Baby Gear Ideas! The color combination of lime green, blue and white plaid walls with the surfer fabric pattern and the plaid looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing your decorating ideas. Jan

Surfing makes a great baby nursery theme and I plan to use my long board as part of our nursery decor.

I like the shade of blue that you used on the walls but I'm not sure about the plaid painting technique. Great job, though!

Unique Baby Gear Ideas shares general safety information based on guidance from U.S. safety agencies and child-safety experts, who advise families not to use drop-side cribs. This guidance reflects current U.S. safety regulations and applies regardless of a crib’s age or condition.

Federal safety standards prohibit the manufacture, sale, and distribution of drop-side cribs. While enforcement focuses on commercial activity, safety agencies strongly advise against using drop-side cribs in any setting due to the risks they pose.

If you own a drop-side crib, safety agencies recommend removing it from use permanently and following local disposal or recycling guidelines so it cannot be reused.
