Children's and Nursery Bedding

Nursery and children's bedding can be one of the most fun parts of designing a bedroom. You will be able to select from a myriad of designs, colors and styles. As children get older, they often want bedding that is of specific cartoon character or television show that they are fond of. Very popular characters will have several different size and styles of comforters and sheet sets. You can even find matching valances and rugs for the room in the same character theme.

For infants and newborns, you will need to take other things into consideration. First is the sex of the child. If you are expecting a child and are unsure of the sex, you may want to stick to a gender neutral color. This could mean a room in yellow or a lovely shade of green. Once you have selected the color, you will need to decide if there is a theme for the space. Most baby supply stores sell sets that include a bumper for the baby's crib, the sheet and the comforter. Most also include a dust ruffle for the crib. You can even find pillows that you can use as throw pillows for your rocking chair.

When you select the bedding for the nursery, keep in mind that you will have it for about eighteen months. The closer your child gets to the age of two, the more likely you are to change from a crib to a toddler bed. This may mean that you will need to purchase new bedding. You will want to purchase additional sheets regardless of what bedding set you buy. You can change the sheet set frequently. Choose colors that coordinate with the comforter and dust ruffle. You will also want to make sure that you buy a mattress pad to protect the mattress from any accidents your child may have.

There are bedding sets available at all price points, which will allow you to stay well within your budget. You can also find a number of deals that are available online for you to review. You can find patterns by different designers. Most websites also sell the matching lamps and accessories for these designs. This way, you can follow through on your theme. Incorporate some other colors so that the room does not become monotone. You can find a number of websites where companies showcase their designs. In most cases you will need to purchase twin sized bedding for a child's room.
