subject: Baby Crib Bedding In Your Baby Nursery [print this page] There are so many baby crib bedding sets to choose from these days that parents can find the perfect design regardless of the type of decor they prefer in their nursery. All these choices also make the final decision more difficult, however, even when youre choosing several sets of bedding. But with a little thought and planning, you can choose a collection of baby crib sets that are soft, comfortable, non-toxic and perfectly stylish for your babys crib and nursery.
Crib sets usually consist of a fitted sheet, crib skirt, bumper and quilt to spread over the top. The first thing you must consider before buying any set of crib bedding is whether the materials are non-toxic. Buying all natural, organic bedding is always a good way to go. The next factor that will affect your decision is whether you want to opt for gender-neutral bedding or want to play into the colors that are typically used for boys and girls. Yellow and green are great gender-neutral colors for babies; pink is the preferred choice for girls, and blue is always popular for little boys. You can combine traditional pink or blue with shades of brown, green or yellow for boys or girls.
In addition to color, you will also find crib sets in a wide variety of designs that are either gender-neutral or gender specific. Designs with polka dots, princesses, unicorns and other feminine images are often made specifically for girls. Things like fire trucks, sports themes and geometric shapes are popular for boys. The largest selections of designs are in the gender-neutral category. You can find everything from jungle themes to barnyard animals to seaside scenes if you prefer gender-neutral baby crib sets. Its quite easy to choose several sets of bedding that coordinate or complement your nursery decor, so youll always have another set on hand when one gets dirty.
If youre looking to purchase a gift for a baby shower or a congratulatory gift for the new parents, baby bed sets make practical and welcome gifts. You might want to stick with gender-neutral themes and colors unless youre sure of what the parents want. Some parents register online, and you can get an idea there, or you can ask the parents outright about their color schemes and any decor theme they may have in mind.
When choosing bedding for a newborn baby, the most important factors are safety and comfort. The design and style, on the other hand, are a purely personal choice.
