Baby Furniture Tips

Setting Up the Nursery

As new parents it is easy to go overboard when buying baby stuff, specially when it comes to the nursery. To avoid ending up with a cluttered and disorganized baby room do a little planning first. Start by making a list of items you need and also by measuring the room so you know what you can fit in it.

Begin with the basics such as a crib, dresser, changing table and shelving. Then, when you figure how much space you have left, you can pick any extras that will complete the look of your decor.

To maximize space try the following ideas:

• Get a collapsible or hanging hamper


• Use the space under the crib for extra storage


• Organize the closet with stackable bins and shelves


• Use the closet door to hang fabric shelves


• Hang more fabric shelves or hanging pockets from behind the door

To make it easier try getting most of your items from the same store, this way you can match the items and the look will be more defined.
